Differences between the 185 and 154

[Tyler Furlow]

How would I be able to tell if I had a 185 with a 154 hood what are the distinct differences if anyone could tell me what the differences are that’d be awesome and if someone could provide pictures of the major differences that’d be above and beyond. Tia fellas

I think 184/5's were painted red in lieu of yellow.

No, the 185s were yellow and white. The 184 were red, with a different grill and electric pto.

The 185 had a bigger carb usually a zenith and a bigger manifold they also had turning brakes and the clutch pedal was made of a casting instead of flat steel. The 154 had an IH carb and a manifold that was smaller. The 184 was just like the 185 except it was painted red had a 86 series grill and an electric pto instead of a mechanical pto.

A 184 came with a little more horsepower . They had a flywheel with teeth and a starter to match. The others had the delco starter generator belt driven.
