Snow blade parts

[Wilsonrl48747 0]

I have a snowblade for my C120, but it did not come with the whole bracket that attaches to the rear axle. Looking at the parts master diagram, it says I need the top plate, and an L shaped spacer. My question is do I need this spacer? I can fab the top plates and pick up a carriage bolt and nut at the hardware store for a few bucks. If I order the plate, spacer, bolts and nuts its going to be about $70. I took a picture of what I have.

Thanks

My rear tach-a-matic did not come with a spacer. It did come with a top plate - an

item that (like you said) could be easily fabricated.

Perhaps the "l-shaped spacer" is a piece of angle iron used as a top plate

on the left side of the tractor for attachment of a spring to assist lifting a rototiller.

I read somewhere here about a clip that keeps the tach-a matic locked over the bar.

I couldn't figure out where that clip would go so I zip-tied the tach-a-matic locking

cam onto the bar. It hasn't popped out yet so I guess it works.

Rob:

You can get the bracket off of E-Bay, they usally arent to bad of a price.

Jon:

The "clip" is just a cotter pin going thru two holes, one on the cam and the other one is on the angle plat.

I couldn't find the hole for the cotter pin to secure the cams. I'll take another look.

you can fab the parts you are refering to and you dont need the L shaped spacer

The only reason I can see for the spacer is that it makes the hitch fit snug fore & aft. Being somewhat anal, I procured and used the spacers.....also, on my rear hitch, the release levers are secured by cute little clevis pins and hairpin clips.

Dont think I have ever even seen that L shaped spacer on a hitch.

Out of the dozens of axle hitches I have, I only have one that had the L spacers, some use a long piece of angle iron with a hole near the back on the left side in place of the top plate, to hook a spring to for a tiller, and only about 1/3 of my hitches have the hole to pin the lever in place, but it would not be hard to drill to except a pin, and if you plan to use a tiller I highly recomend it, I've had the tiller drop out a couple of times.
