mrc 729 #1 Posted July 11, 2011 hi all, i recently got a 50inch grader blade. i believe the rear round bar of the grader blade hooks up to the rear axle bracket like a snowplow, correct? then there is a short flat stock piece (about 4inches long or so) that pins up to the mower deck lift bar, correct? thank you. mike in mass.

Horse'n Around 22 #2 Posted July 11, 2011 I just thought of something, Isnt there two different types, mid mount blades and the ones that mount at the rear axle? If yours is designed to be attached to the rear end then it sounds like you have it right. Sorry that I cant be of more help to you. Enjoy your grader :woohoo: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shorts 182 #5 Posted July 12, 2011 I just put D160 50'' rear mount blade under my C160, it fits the standard rear axle attach matic mount, and made up a solid link to the lift arm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr.pipes 4 #6 Posted July 14, 2011 then there is a short flat stock piece (about 4inches long or so) that pins up to the mower deck lift bar, correct? The bar is 10"-12" long and connects to the highest, outermost hole. The one that is for "extra lift height, snow blade only" I hope you have better luck getting a cotter pin on than I do. Anyone have any tips on that? I can send you the manual if you give me your email address Top bar is for the 50" and the lower is for the 40" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr.pipes 4 #7 Posted July 14, 2011 Isnt there two different types, mid mount blades and the ones that mount at the rear axle? 50" is rear mount. 40" is mid mount. But I'm not too familiar with D series graders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I'm not too familiar with D series graders. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I know very little about implements and attachments. Pretty much just what Ive learned from reading and studying pictures :woohoo: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
