So I was kinda high and flipped my dads riding lawn mower like a few months back and bent the frame so it can't cut grass anymore...... the motor weighs a lil over a 100lbs, i was thinkin about jus throwing it on a frame with some big wheels and winching it......

what does everyone think about this? I mean i hate to have this motor jus sitting around.....

triggamike, sell it and get a more realistic motor for a winch

Sounds like something you can mount on a .................. Bulldog Winch Frame.

triggamike, i don't think that engine would work because it is a horizontal engine.

i'm probably wrong.

daniel, Horizontal Engine? Haha. Close. Actually you want a horizontal drive shaft, which riding lawn mowers do not have. They are vertical shaft motors which I've yet to see on a winch.
