Why would the front axle not work and steering not work?
The only difference between the frames is the length, and fender pan height.. So any linkage parts will need to be longer. The frame is lengthened right at the dash tower, so your manual steering linkage should be the same.
Can you put the dual brakes on the 1811...... sure. But they aren't bolt on. The pedals won't fit like they do on an SGT because they hit the side panel. (That's where the SGT frame is longer). Also, because of lower mounting fender pan there is issues getting the linkage under the fenders not to interfere with the mower deck.
Grab the frame. It's worth having. Even if you tuck it in the corner.
