gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,280 #2 Posted October 5, 2020 Welcome to the forum. Here are 15 files on your tractor and they are in no particular order. Notice how the model number has a dash (-). https://www.wheelhorseforum.com/search/?q=31-16k801&quick=1&type=downloads_file Added your serial number to one of them. Look for the SN. The bottom box on you decal would have had the Julian build date but has faded long ago. Garry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you don't have a dealer in your area here is a source that I use for OEM & after market parts. http://www.psep.biz/index.htm For decals - Terry or Vinylguy on this forum, makes about the best decals you will find. https://www.redoyourhorse.com/ Feel free to ask any questions that you have, we like to help.

Gracie's Dad 155 #15 Posted October 28, 2020 Hey Boyd, get with me...I have a snowblower you can have, if you don't already have One? Probably even delivered, since you live near by. I have never used it, but got it in a package deal. It is complete with flag and belt. It is not a show piece, but the auger spins and i believe it is usable. It has been sitting in my backyard for a couple of years, semi-covered. I have one everywhere I plow, so I don't need this one. Don't want to see it in the backyard anymore, and I don't want to see it go to waste. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
