I am changing up to the 7.5 hp motor. And as I was installing the new motor, I noticed that there was some transmission fluid apparently leaking out around...
Yep, it's a 3.5 hp motor. The newer 5hp and aftermarket 7.5hp motors will bolt up to the differential, but the shock mount on the passenger side has to be...
Hi I have a GEM 2002 model with a 7.5 hp motor is there any larger motors out there that would fit my GEM, I was hoping for a 9 or 10 hp motor? Peter Ricky...
Not that I'm aware of. I heard perhaps there was a 10 hp motor that would only fit 05's, but I never saw anything to follow up on that. Later, Ricky peeter...
