jeremi3210 735 #1 Posted January 15, 2021 Iam gonna put a 670 preditor on my gt1800 and was wonder what is everyone running for a pto. It says it has ball bearings on the crank but iam not sure if it can handle the side load of the stock setup or to look for a electric pto. Any advise would be great! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,922 #2 Posted January 15, 2021 Hey Jeremi, seems like someone pointed out they are the same part number as a Kohler bearings? DON’T quote me, but I just recall that story. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 27,622 #3 Posted January 15, 2021 To be safe, I think that I would use an electric clutch. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was shocked when i heard they had ball bearings and a iron sleeve for that money. A steal in my opinion. Edited January 16, 2021 by Maxwell-8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeremi3210 735 #8 Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) Got it done! Thing runs and drives great! Can't wait to use it this spring! I decided to give the manual pto a try, guess someone needs to get this question answered once and for all right! I used steves 8hp shaker plate i got from @pullstartjust had to make solid mounts and drill 2 hole to mount the motor. Oh and put in a hole for the drain plug! Hopefully it will make a oil change! Lol!! Everything thing else lined right up! The exhaust i had to bring out and up about 3 inches. Still interested if anyone else has tried this with this motor or not! The wiring i used a battery power ignition switch and put in a relay for the kill switch. Edited January 23, 2021 by jeremi3210 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
