Husqvarna YTH 24V48 Product 960450046 Serial 012315a046880
Hi All, I acquired a Husq yth 24v48 with a blown briggs .The engine is a 24HP 44N877. The shaft is 1' Diameter, 3 5/32 length, 7/16x20 tapped along with a 1/4 inch keyway. My question is : Do I have any options for replacement ? Do I have to use the exact engine ? Will the Husq accept any other bolt up patterns as long I have the same size shaft? Thanks , Matt.

Ebay turns up with good used rider engines pretty often.

Most people trash their mower decks long before the engine breaks down severely.

I recommend stay with the B&S, otherwise you will have to make some changes to fit a Kohler and wire it in.

These engines typically have the same basic mounting hole patterns.
