WU’s agricultural carrier

[WU’s]

Hi Guys, Paul from Western Australia.
I’ve recently got a WU’s agricultural carrier,
I’ve been searching for a while and found little information on them until I came across this page. I saw the post from 2012 and wounded if any more were around. Mine came with a 7hp Robin engine that was electric start but the starter was missing and another couldn’t be found. I’ve repowered it with a 13hp Honda.
Here’s a picture of mine, if anyone has any info that would be great.

I'm in Northern Utah, United Staes. I came across a Wu's W-20G Agricultural Carrier in a Facebook ad. It runs (but reverse doesn't work), and the bed dumps. As you can see it's shorter than yours, and only two axles. The front is independent suspension with a transverse leaf spring. It has a single cylinder engine, looks to be a Chinese clone of a Honda, but I couldn't find any markings.

Does anyone else have a machine like this, or any information about the transmission?? I'd like to buy it but want to make sure the reverse can be fixed.

Regards,

Smitty

So I went and looked at it again during the day. The unit doesn't go into reverse. Someone has "worked" on the shifting shaft, so maybe the did something to exclude it.

Also, the top housing on the transaxle that the steering goes into is loose and missing a bolt.

It uses a centrifigual type clutch on the engine with a large pulley on the transaxle. I'm thinking of installing a transaxle from a golf cart... does anyone have any idea if this will work?
