| Hey guys I'm new to the site I have a craftsman gt3000 with 23 hp kohler v-twin. I have a front suspension from a 300ex sport bike with spindles,hubs, brakes, and shocks for my front end I'm also planning on a 6 motor pulley and a 5 in trans pulley . Along with separate brake and clutch with a gas pedal. I'll have pics soon as of right now it has 25 in dirt devil rear tires they look like mudlites. Help me out with ideas |

| Ya I've done some measuring and I think it should all work but I'm having trouble right now it's not getting fuel to the carb do the fuel pumps on those kohlers go out often |

| Trapshtr3792: Depends - id try rebuilding it first ( if its a vacuum type) - sometimes the rubber detiriorates inside. Other then that id look for a small cheep electric fuel pump. | |

| Someone else did a similar setup- they used the front swing arms from an atv on thier tractor : http://atltf.forumotion.com/project-builds-f4/atv-lawn-tractor-hybrid-t112.htmI have pics somewhere of a custom built atv type tractor - they custom built a chassis - A arm front and swing arm rear - with a toro or huffy body on it . Looked sharp. Instead of a trans, id look for either a 700 peerless ( has the lower input and side sprocket) - or a right angle gear box ( youll need a go kart clutch) - so you can run a 1" straight axle . | |

| you can take out the fuel solenoid and replace it with a bolt or you can cut the plunger that stops fuel.
Note: alot of people say replace it with a bolt but that wont work on all engines. it didnt on my 18.5 hp v twin | |
