Identify these parts ? Wheel Horse ?

[Bluffhunter 37]

These were in my Dad's shop, and red, so I grabbed them up, but not sure what they are, or if their even for a wheel horse. He worked on a lot of mowers and tillers.

 

The one part looks like a tiller or cultivator part to me.

The blade is in real good shape !  I just don't know yet how to hook it up.

Part in 1st picture is for setting rototiller depth on a walk behind.

That's what I was assuming also rydogg, but wasn't certain . It's built very heavy duty so wondered if it might be some type of sub-soiler minus the digger, or something.

 

Thanks for the reply !

I would guess a sub-soiler too, seems way too heavy-duty for a tiller depth control.  Just sub-soiling 2-3" before you rototill makes a big  difference, it's very hard for the tines to get into hard-dry soil and it seems harder still getting through grass that has not been broken up.

Second photo, I have no idea.

Here is a picture of my compact tiller with the depth control....it helps so the tiller won't fight you so much.  The one pictured is much smaller than the one you have pictured, I am guessing that came from one of the 70's Gilson type walk behinds.
