Just stuck

Hi everyone. I'm having some trouble mounting my dozed blade to my 520h. 48 inch blade with the extension but I can't get it to mount up right with the axle bracket. Could it be that I have the wrong bracket? I thought most of the axle brackets were the same. My old 312-8 was simple. Any pics of how your mounts up in the rear would definitely help. Thanks so much in advance.

The top part of your axle bracket is missing...or did you just not put it in the picture?..

Don't the locking ears (movable levers that hold the blade frame in the axle bracket) go on the outside of the bracket and the opposite way?

It has two plates that go on top of the axle correct? 4 lag bolts go up and around the axle, through the plates?

Would it be possible for the frame extension on the plow to be upside down?

Yes it does, and mine is exactly the same way. The problem I'm having, is when I install the axle bracket, the crossbar on the bracket seems to be in the way of the plow frame extension and won't let it lock in.

MAYBE you have the rear axle bracket on backwards.  That crossbar MUST be toward the front of the tractor./

My 520-8 came with a plow w/extension, as well as  the axle bracket. My bracket doesn't have the L shaped pieces, but bolts on just fine. Only issue I ran into was the plow frame rubbing on the tranny pulley. I just moved the bracket over a 1/4" or so and now it's fine.

Ok, so I tried it again and it seems I finally got the rear locked in. Not sure why I had so much trouble to begin with. I thank you all very much for your help. I absolutely love this site!

There's a bit of a trick to getting the A frame on the front blade/plow to line up on center with the tractor - if it's not centered properly that rear bracket is an absolute pain to get it to lock into the slots . It's the worst with the D series 56" blades due to their weight difference .
