953 nut 59,746 #51 Posted December 1, 2016 OK, got a minute to take a few pictures and measurements on the pole that attaches the SPR 42 snow plow to the RJ. It attaches to the frame with bolts that will go through holes drilled through the frame at 8' and 14" from the front of the frame. The 3/4" pivot points are welded to the Sch. 40 1 1/4" pipe and 3/4" washers are welded near the ends. Take a look and let me know if you need any more information. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VinsRJ 723 #52 Posted December 2, 2016 Very nice find! IMO its looks more like a 56. The attachment arm is for a reel mower. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Awesome picture and very nice rj! I ran across this ID tag I had in my parts pile and realized it was only 4 serial numbers less than yours! pretty cool I thought....

Also, does it have any date casting numbers on top of the transmission right by the shifter? Thanks, Clay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, Clay I'll have a look for the number later today, both the RJs came together from a dealership in upstate NY that the owner had passed away, thay were found in a barn with an original snowplow so i have no idea lf the engine is original but i would like to think so 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is the other RJ running a Clinton too or a Kohler? From the sounds of it there is a good chance that the engine might be original to it. The Model number and serial numbers on the engine go in line of the time line for a early serial number tractor. Pictures would be great too...thanks Chris.

chris sutton 610 #57 Posted December 14, 2016 Sorry to take so long Clay, I can't find a number on the transmission but the 58 is in the back shed for storage during the wnter and difficult to get at. the Rj 35 has a kohler and the 58 has a Clinton, I'll dig some photos out when i get time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
