Model 265H 1998 circa - mower deck fit 520H?

Recommended Posts

It looks like too much adjusting, but is it possible to make a 265 model 48" deck fit a 520H?

 

How about the blower?  Model 79263

 

Deck is a model 78261

 

Tractor is model 72046

Anything is possible but first off the pulley covers will hit on your 520-H. You would need the complete hanger assembly from a C-Series or, 300, 400, 500 Series deck to bolt/weld on the 265-H's deck after removing the original hangers from it and filling holes. You would also need to check the drive pulley and how it would line-up with the 520's mule drive and your modified hangers. Your belts would need to be measured and bought since a stock belt would probably not work. You would also need to look at the rear wheel clearances from one tractor to the other since the 520 may have a different wheelbase and definitely has wider rims than the 265.

 

As far as the snowblower is concerned, you run into the same things. The 520 has a different attachment setup than the lawn tractor does. It is really best to wait for a deck to come along that fits the tractor you have. 48" decks are fairly easy to find and snowblowers as well.
