4wheelsis2toofew 23 #1 Posted May 8, 2021 Howdy everyone, I recently was given a wheel horse for parts. It had a 12 hp motor and an 8 speed. It was in awful shape. The prior owner needed the motor for a log skidder, and I needed the rear wheels for an ATV trailer. I pulled the motor and took the rest home, only to find the tires were completely shot. I broke it down into parts, it is an amazingly well built machine. The transmission is in good working order, I want to repurpose it into one of my 6x6 amphibious ATVs. When researching the wheel horse, I really liked the friendly nature of this forum. If anybody needs any bits off an old wheel horse other than the tranny, let me know, I hate to throw out parts someone could put to use. 1 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,717 #2 Posted May 8, 2021 Welcome to Red Square I answered in your other thread about your transmission. If you know what tractor you have there, we can see what transmission should be in it...if original. See if you can find a model number. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
