WheelHorseJunkie71 2 #1 Posted December 8, 2013 Still being relatively new to the forums, could someone direct me to the correct replacement blades for my 68 Commando? I need a pair. Thanks Aaron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,499 #2 Posted December 8, 2013 32" width of cut? Shaft driven spindles? Takes a left and right blade because they turn in opposite directions. Toro 2-blade set part number 8777. 16" blades with 5/8in.x3/4in. double-D hole. Mower deck may be model 5-2321 Garry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WheelHorseJunkie71 2 #3 Posted December 9, 2013 Hi, thanks and yes I have the original 32 inch cut rear discharging deck. Did a quick search ...whew those sets are expensive, but I guess I can swing that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WheelHorseJunkie71 2 #4 Posted March 22, 2014 Okay been off awhile, and now that it's warming up here, I see now that my mower deck stamp states Mod # 5-2362, does this change the blade requirement mentioned above? Sure do seem hard to find those! Thanks Aaron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
groundhog47 347 #5 Posted March 22, 2014 (edited) Okay been off awhile, and now that it's warming up here, I see now that my mower deck stamp states Mod # 5-2362, does this change the blade requirement mentioned above? Sure do seem hard to find those! Thanks Aaron According to blade chart that's a 36" mower and uses blade kit 8014 (for 62-69 decks 36" cut). The deck shows for a 69 model yr deck. If I have any I'll PM ya, (check morning) most are the 3 blade sets as I remember (for newer models 36, edited 03/22) All my double D's are shorter, my mistake!

WheelHorseJunkie71 2 #6 Posted March 22, 2014 Hi, that's interesting, as mine presently only has two blades....this is starting to confuse me....lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,499 #7 Posted March 22, 2014 Here is the 5-2362 parts list The 8014 blade set has 2 blades. These blades rotate in opposite directions so the cutting edges are on opposite sides and Toro is the only replacement supplier. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

groundhog47 347 #9 Posted March 23, 2014 Hi, that's interesting, as mine presently only has two blades....this is starting to confuse me....lol Guess I should qualify that saying that a group of the newer models have the 3 blade set, 1 long, 2 short. All the counter rotating blade/decks I've seen in 32 and 36 have 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
