| I'd check Craigslist. Go one there, set the max pice on $100 and search lawn tractor. But for a perfect engine it may cost a bit. | |

no welder. everything i do to it is bolt on. and since the montgomery frame and the mtd frame are pretty much identicle despite there being 15 years of age between the two. so most mtd parts fit in the ward.im going to swap out the double pulley and mount because the one on the montgomery is rusted and doesnt work right. i hate vari drive lol | |
