953 nut 55,279 #2 Posted June 1, 2023 The engine and Spec number on your M-12 is common to all 312s built from 1987 to to 1997 so that doesn' narrow it down for us. There should be a sticker under your seat that has a modal number for the tractor, that would get the job done. Please tell us a little about yourself and how you became interested in Wheel Horses or some other intress you may have. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,046 #5 Posted June 1, 2023 M-Series engine used 1987 or later but could have been made in 1986. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am looking for other parts for the tractor, parts for the mower and its assembly, not popular in Poland and no used parts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wallfish 17,002 #10 Posted June 1, 2023 Same thing for the tractor too. MANY parts will interchange with all of the 312s and many other WH tractors. It's most likely a 1987 but without a tractor serial number it's a guess What specific parts are you looking for???? It would be very helpful to know what you're looking for as many members on here could help you too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 17,002 #12 Posted June 1, 2023 That front mule drive is not specific to that 312. It's a very common part here in the US and on many European Wheel Horse tractors Many many models used that same exact part from 1973 - 1990s. Easiest to find it as an entire assembly. If you see one that looks the same it's probably good. There are some European members here that you can try contacting those guys from. If all else fails, I'll send you one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,046 #13 Posted June 1, 2023 The parts in this picture are part of the mower deck. The rest are part of the tractor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,046 #14 Posted June 1, 2023 The 471527 spec number does show up in the 1988 tractor parts lists from Toro. TIPL Look at the engine page to see what models are included. Poor lists because they don't specify what model uses what. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whatever happened to your rear fender pan probably destroyed the model and serial tag. What do y'all think, 21-12K804 maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
