WHX?? 57,705 #1 Posted 1 hour ago So @Achto and I were at show and had a little gravel pile to play in with our mid mounts & blades & loaders. I had brought this pusher rear mount to play with but neglected to bring along a axle bracket. No big deal I'll just one off of pale face Dan's 856. Well this wasn't gonna work. I had thought all brackets were the same. What bracket to I need to run this? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 12,772 #2 Posted 1 hour ago That is a later style Grader blade - the "push" style. It requires the later C series, 300, 400 bracket. The "pull" style required no axle bracket - it mounted to the mid Tach-a-matic frame mounts like a cutting deck. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Without bolting on the front as this one does. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lane Ranger 12,077 #4 Posted 51 minutes ago (edited) Jim : I think the older rear axle bracket was made for a short frame snowplow and it has a wider rod on the snowplow (or locks on the outside portions of the rod on the snowplow). You need the newer version of a rear axle bracket that has a more narrower length on the lock in clamps. Anyway that is my understanding but I sold my version of your mid grader blade and just have the early version now for my round hood tractors. The rear axle hitch you have is 15 1/2 inches wide on the install locks. The newer Wheel Horse/Toro version is 11 inches wide. The old style mid grader blade rear 3/4 rod attached to plates on the side of the frame of a Wheel Horse. Your version, the much stronger , wider and better operating Mid Grader blade attached to the rear hitch but with a more narrow set of locking arms! The last three pics are of the old style rear axle hitch (this. one for a HY hydraulic lift cylinder installation).

I think I have one of those "short" brackets on a winter 520 that was used for a tiller. Maybe that one will work? Will have to look when she comes out of storage for snow duty. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
