Brand new, the wheels are tristar 5" rims with caristle 4.10-5 tires, pretty sure theyre the same size as originals

I built a taco 22 with original scrub brake. But the first time I went to brake I noticed the pedal is very close to the ground when I press it hard enough to actually stop well. It scraped my brand new pedal cover. It has 5" rims. What can I do to fix this, I am just very confused because I...

I have been finally finishing up the small things on my taco 22 build. I had fixed up a briggs late 70s 3hp and ordered the original decals for the engine that was on a taco 22. So i am going for the same look as a late 60s briggs 3hp. Im not sure how exact ill be able to get the decals, but was...

Have a taco 22 with tristar wheels I built. I have 1.5" spacers on each side of the tristar rims. It has a briggs 3hp. Anyone know the spacer sizes on each side of the rim (sprocket side & other side), In order for the chain to line up? I don't have washers to test it out so I wanted to see if...

I have a 3hp briggs and was wondering if someone could tell me the size of bolt I would need for the end of the shaft to hold clutch on. Ive always used a bolt and washer on the end of my other motors, but would a set screw in the clutch, alone, hold it on fine if I can't find a bolt at the...

This is all I needed to know, Thank you so much for your help and time! -Drenchedgremlin

I had a question. I am getting a 3hp flathead fixed up to go onto a taco 22. I replaced the points coil with a magneto. The hinge plate that is supposedly (a governor device") was hooked into the old coil to keep it in place but the new coil doesn't have the pegs to hook it onto. Can I just rig...

Okay thanks for the pointers. Do you know if having the rear wheel offset causes quicker tire wear? I always thought it did but I'm not sure

i am building my taco 22 frame with fresh tristar wheels, & need to get axles and spacers. Can anyone tell me the exact size of spacers you have on each side of the wheels (front and rear)? I have the drum brake edition 22, but i don't think ill be adding one since I don't like them very much...

Glad i asked, didn't even think about that. I would need to make a bracket i suppose

The lash was perfect & true, i probably will lap them. Thanks for the suggestion
