It has a 10 hp tecumseh ungoverned but I would rather have a flat head Briggs or v twin Briggs or Kohler. I think it has a 930 series peerless but not 100% sure has 3/4 inch axles. If anyone can tell me what it is for sure My plans include 18x9.50-8 tires all the way around (later on they may become Swamp lites). A custom front axle (same type as fearlessfront has on his racing mower ). Lock the transaxle custom bumpers front and rear. A Snorkel and custom straight pipe exhaust. I have made a custom Atv rack from 1/2 plywood, a cup holder, and shifter. I may add front fenders

Can someone tell me how to post pictures from my cell phone
If you have a computer you could copy them to it and upload them. I used to run 18x9.50-8 on the back. Then I bought 20x10.00-8 and put the 18's on the front. If you keep the straight pipe under the frame they should clear.
