I have an old rototiller with an 1/2 horse GE electric motor, 110 volt. I had a 3/4 " rod keyed for a jackshaft. turns real slow but nothing bogges it down :)

wtf

[Mueiwark]

Electric?? No way, on a tractor that old?

[sheepdogjake]

@Mueiwark idk maybe because thats a late 70s garden tractor (looks like a sears suburban) and the elect trak was made it the late 70s and they could have swaped out the engines

[BillTheTractorMan]

@sheepdogjake its a 66-68 model, the grill is not of ones made after 1970. It's a homemade conversion.

[M2D4DK]

@Mueiwark I think it´s home made..

[NRGearz]

@Mueiwark It IS homemade, the tractor is an early/mid Sears Suburban.

@Mueiwark same moving parts as todays tractors. all he did was replace the motor....

[Mueiwark]

@mbm0285 Sure you can toss out the engine block and attach a large electric motor to the transmission, but remember that will give lots of energy loss from friction (transmission gears, drive shaft, differential etc). You would get almost 100% efficiency if the electric motor was attached directly to the rear wheels like modern electric cars. Another plus, you don't need a transmission (less weight) and drive shaft anymore (well unless you want 4-wd that is).
