Yerf Predator swap - Lining up drive
Bought an old Yerf Dog. I think it is a 3200. I've swapped the Tecumseh for a Predator from Harbor Freight. The problem is that the drive components don't line up. The clutch(?) on the drive shaft is about 3/4" offset to the right of the driven pulley. I guess I could solve it by using a wider spacer on the drive shaft to push the clutch left. Anyone else encountered this problem?

added some bushings, seems to have solved it.

I've done that to three 3203's so far , each time a little different . Involved making different spacers', moved slots to the left 1/4" ( gotta watch you don't get driver and belt too close to engine case ) The last one I did I cut a bit off the old crankshaft to make a slug to fill the void in the driver . Grade 8 driver bolt and good washers a must , and most importantly a good straight edge setup to get perfectly aligned or it will eat belts like crazy .

Just had a memory come to me regarding this topic , you have to watch it when moving the slots over , engine can get precariously close to drive chain .
