The mini hoe is framed up on a old Jacobsen.. I swear if it wasn't orange and said Jacobsen I would have though CUB CADET.... original engine was a Kohler K321.. 14HP single cylinder with what they called granade gears ( counter balance) I took them out and it ran great. Still have that engine....I put the TH18 on because it was free and a lot quieter.. this is one hell of an upgrade... Click on the pic and you'll get the video. e

Life is what you make of it. So, why not make a working machine to make it easier.
