Kelly 1,033 #1 Posted June 5, 2008 My uncle picked up a couple of tractors, 2 WH's a b-80 and a 552, and some other crapsman stuff, I told him to get anything red, that might go to a tractor, when picking stuff up, He found this PTO shaft and right angle gear box any ideas on what it might be?? he said it's about 4' long, maybe for a D??

HorseFixer 2,013 #2 Posted June 5, 2008 Kelly I havent a clue, but very interesting device. I could see some interesting uses for it possibly like coupling to a water pump or something. Wrap it up and give it to me for Christmas! Duke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GlenPettit 1,717 #4 Posted June 6, 2008 I've seen a picture (Danish site) where a "Wheel Horse made for export" had something that looks likes just this, no idea how it was used but came out the back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,033 #5 Posted June 6, 2008 No Perry they are not for me. I could get the B-80 if I wanted it, but I don't, I get first dibs on the 552 it's pretty nice, but has a 8hp kohler on it, not running.He paid $100 for it. He also picked up a 417A with a bad motor W/deck for $175 And a tiller for $40 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teddy da Bear 11 #6 Posted June 7, 2008 I would like to run across a B-80. I have one and need some parts. That item pictured looks like a belt driven PTO of some sort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HorseFixer 2,013 #7 Posted June 7, 2008 I've seen a picture (Danish site) where a "Wheel Horse made for export" had something that looks likes just this, no idea how it was used but came out the back. Well then if you are correct about that, then it would be for a D-250 becuase that was the only tractor made out of the U.S. I would be certain then it is a P.T.O. Shaft made for some sort of Impliment for the D-250. Cheers Duke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rideawaysenior 25 #8 Posted June 7, 2008 Definatly not for a D250. THe pto for the front is similar to the other D's, and the rear PTO is incorperated in the tranny. I wonder if it may be for one of the vertical engine WH macines? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baerpath 517 #9 Posted June 7, 2008 A lot of WH's were made out of the country in Belgium, The D250 was one of the few imported to the US. Not sure but I wonder if it was part of a rear PTO system? Never seen anything like that in my D250 or Gutenbrod books. Duane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly 1,033 #10 Posted June 7, 2008 As I said it may not even be a WH part, I was thinking maybe, but not sure, it's kinda small for a farm tractor, and belt drive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
perry 82 #11 Posted June 8, 2008 what about for a bolens tractor ?. they have that driveshaft hook-up pto on them. i know the rear tillers run a shaft from the tiller to the front spline. :whistle: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
perry 82 #12 Posted June 8, 2008 hey kelly, i posted this on a another tractor board and this is what i got as a rsponse. Judging from the bracket just below the pulley (the one w/ off set and hole at the end) it comes from the Massey Furguson Garden tractors or the Snapper Garden tractors. Models 1655 and 1855 or the like. Snapper bought out MF and produced the garden tractors (just the name plate changed) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
perry 82 #13 Posted June 8, 2008 and another response. I will bet it was to run a tiller or blower on a wheel horse, cause my brother has one like it I think and he has a wheel horse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
