I have a Hay Budden 116 lb anvil in the trailer. I found a Champion hardy but the stem was small fitting in the hardy hole in the anvil. I just welded some 1/8 x 1 to the stem of the hardy and cleaned up a smidge with a flap wheel. Now the hardy fits the anvil like a saddle on a sow. Many ways to fix things.
