Crabtreeb 8 #3 Posted April 26, 2015 Any one know of a wheel horse hood that 6" to 8" longer I'm going to need a hood stretcher. This motor was pretty easy to replace I took the bottom bracket off and spun it around. Then I put the front left bolt in to the bracket and frame. Then I installed the left bolts thru the motor into the bracket. Then I installed the drive pulls. I pivoted the motor around so that the drive pulley and tans axle pulley where inline. Then I clamped every thing down with a two c clamps and drove it around to make sure every thing was working. Then I drilled out my holes and bolted it down same belt worked fine.

sgtsampay 117 #4 Posted April 26, 2015 Very Nice. Looks kinda like my b1300 custom build. I just did it a little differently so I i coud keep the same hood. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bmsgaffer 2,046 #6 Posted April 27, 2015 Looks like you have the "mid-frame" B80. I believe these were a few inches shorter than all the rest of the series and would cause problems with fitment of a larger repower... Might require some fab work if you dont want to put the motor on a long frame tractor... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
