I think Mr. Wheels was referring to your Craftsman tiller engine.

 

[ironman]

ok i got the motor today i dont know what you think guys not bad for 50.00 well i guess now its time to get a clutch .

 

[crazycart]

If anything i'd put the dually's on the back you'll have alot more flotation and traction.I had a briggs 5 or 6 horse on my cart (very simular to yours) before the valve stuck and i removed the governor and it flew.

 

[ironman]

i think im going to just get a set of wider rims and put on instead

 

[russo2]

you should use the rototiller wheels on the back they look pretty aggressive

 

[ironman]

they are 3/4 and my rear axle is 5/8 they also have no type of bearing on them but i did think about it.

 

[ironman]

[2or3wheels]
