billythegoat 4 #1 Posted 15 hours ago Looking for part # and where I can purchase the "blade control rod" for my 1984 GT1100 wheel horse. It broke off during last year's snowstorm and finally now getting a chance to prep for the coming winter. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 12,816 #2 Posted 12 hours ago (edited) Welcome! Got a model number for the plow? That would allow you to search in the Manuals - Implements section for the Exploded diagram & parts list. Is it a simple 1/2" diameter steel rod with a 90 degree bend at each end?? If so many of us (myself included) make a better version using a straight piece of 1/2" round stock and thread the ends 1/2-20 for a pair of Heim Joints. MUCH smoother feel, no slop.

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 12,454 #3 Posted 11 hours ago This is the blade sold back in 1984 for your tractor but any blade from 1973-2012 for the long frame tractors is basically the same so you could have one of many. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MUCH smoother feel, no slop. I've done one too. EXCELLENT upgrade. The side angle control is far superior to OE. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
