C175, vs 520 plow blade compatability

[JERSEYHAWG / Glenn 4,487]

will a 520 plow blade work on a C 175?

 

if not, why not.

 

thanks,

Glenn

yes.

 

The only thing that makes a 520 blade different is that it has a (removable) extension kit on it that pushes it about 4" forward to clear the forward swept axle and the angle handle is bent so you can still reach it. 

 

Other than those items they are exactly the same. So if you have the original angle handle, you can remove the extension kit and have the same exact blade as all the other tach-a-matic tractors use.

I don't believe all 520's had the frame extension. only those with the forward swept axle. Some 520's did not have the swept front axle.
