mikeeyre74 289 #1 Posted May 21, 2015 I've been eyeballing the old school early PTO engagement lever/bar thing lately and really digging it. I have a 1977 B-80 and I'm pondering putting that setup on mine in place of the regular forward and backward moving lever that came stock on mine.. If I could find a complete setup, would this be possible for me without cutting things up or too much modification in general? I also like the old school foot pegs, and have been pondering those in place of my stock running boards as well.. Same question. Is this an easy swap? Or will there be issues?

daveoman1966 3,738 #2 Posted May 21, 2015 So, you want to regress... to what is circled in this pic. The 2nd pic shows the setup on a Charger 12, but it is all the same. You'll need the hoodstand bracket, long PTO lever / rod and the STUD that mounts in the engine block. I have these. As for the foot pegs, they older ones should fit on the 3/4" frame rod that your foot rail is bolted to.for more info, contact me OUTSIDE of this forum. my direct email is:daveoman@windstream.net Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 10,864 #3 Posted May 21, 2015 Personally I think the set up you're wanting to replace is the best ever on Wheel Horses but to each their own. The changeover is pretty easy. Dave has you lined up with the parts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
