Post Going from 6.5 hp to 13
I have been following this website for quite a while but never posted till now. I have a mad mud motor with a 6.5 hp Honda clone and Im wanting to buy the 13 hp harbor freight motor and hook it up but here's the problem the shaft sizes are different. So has anyone ever heard of either a yoke that connects a 1 in crank shaft u joint to a 3/4 in u joint ?? I want to keep my 3/4 in drive shaft and frame the same and I have been stressing out about this as you can tell I'm posting this past midnight and I have to work Tommorow. Any help is greatly appreciated, I hope someone knows more about this than I do.

Go to driveshaftparts.com they have the kit for 25 bucks you order two yokes and a u-joint. I have a 16 hp that has the 1 inch shaft and my driveshaft is 3/4

Thanks I appreciate it . I have been searching for a while now. How is yours setup do you have the 1 in joint that connects to the 3/4 yoke or do you have a yoke that has both sizes?
