I have a Dig-it 188T(Ingersoll 6018) that i bought less the engine,It came stock with a 18hp Onan engine,I am going back with a Kohler Magnum 18,From what I can tell the hydro pump had a bracket that mounted to the engine and its missing.

 I ordered a bracket off eBay that I thought might work,but it doesn't line up with any of the holes in the block,nor is it deep enough. If anyone has any ideas let me know,I dont have the shop facilities that some of you do or the tools(welder and such).

Looks like the tractor in my profile picture,its not a towable,I think it has changed hands a few times over the years.

First you will need the bolt pattern dimensions on your kohler engine. Then the hydraulic pump mounting flange . with these numbers in hand you can find one either from Surplus Center .com or Northern Hydraulics. Com . just be sure you also have the crankshaft and pump input shaft lengths too. As there are different length brackets available.

Do you also need a coupler?
