1968Commando 171 #1 Posted 5 hours ago Hello all, yesterday I dropped my zero turn off at the dealer because it’s broken 😠 anyway I spotted a red snow plow..it’s wheel horse plow, I believe it’s probably a 90s or 80s one, are these plowed pretty interchangeable or not really? Can get serial number for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 78,749 #2 Posted 3 hours ago Have to have a serial number to tell for sure. If it fits a 300 or 400 series or any C Series then it will fit your commando. If it's built for a 200 series, not so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
