314A snow plow lever

[Gabe 32]

Can someone tell me the correct measurement from the center of the top hole that attaches to the triangle on the frame to the center of the bottom hole for the rod, the one I have was cut off, so I’m unable to attach the rod, any advice is appreciated. I have 1/4”. Flat bar to weld the extension

Mine is on 7.75" centers,  and the triangle does not connect to the lever.   It has its own support bar.

Yes you are correct, I didn’t know how to explain that, but the lever looks identical, thank you! 🫡🇺🇸

My attachment points where the hanger attaches to the triangle is slanted to the right it is not 90 degree position, is this normal? I used it like this before I found the rod that swivels the blade, so at that time I did not know the lever was short until this year lol, I used to use snow or get out to move the blade left or right. Appreciate the reply a photo👍

[Ed Kennell 44,667]

That looks correct. Mine is also slanted.

Awesome, looks like that top mount is threaded, I never had the correct threaded bolt, just a smaller one that slid thru and had a nut ago keep it  in place, couldn’t find the bolt size to thread count, but I manage with it the other way.. I have some chains sittting in vinegar lol to get red of the rust, then I’ll probably have to cut them, my tires are 22/7.5/12 thanks again

That should be a 1/2-13   thread.

Use a 1/2-13 full threaded hex bolt long enough to have 4 to 6 threads protruding out the back to allow the use of a jam nut.

That way, set the handle gap and tighten the jam nut to hold the adjustment...

To get my levers to clear the foot rest and motion control foot pedals I usually have to add spacers and on some I  turn the levers backwards.    I do have some custom set ups.

might want to put a flat washer between moving parts for ease of movement.

@Gabe   that lever swing point  is vital to entire  function , have referred to a SHOULDER BOLT , unthreaded movement  connection , that way  the lever is swinging on a smooth surface , not on threading . have added flat washers  , to DIAL IN , SMOOTH EASY  FUNCTION ,also done that with a regular nut ? allowing  perfect  easy lubricate swing  , then switch out the regular nut , for an elastic  Lok nut , holding perfect  swing ease setting  , found that  to be the perfect  setting  swing / hold point . done a lot of  linkage experimentation , initial set up was , production line , couple of  minutes , of  insurance , makes a world of difference . pete
