Has anyone been successful mating a D series mid grader blade to a c-series?

Not sure if that could be done , but I do have the older 40" mid-mount blade that would fit if you'd be interested in trading , perhaps ?

That D series mid-blade is pretty big but would probably work one way or another...

Thanks Sarge. Just thinking of what my c-160 can handle. I’ve got a 40” on my Commando.

I think the only real difference would be how much down pressure you can generate - the larger the blade , the more it will lift the rear tires enough to lose traction ability . Unless , of course - you weight the rear a bunch .

Doubt there's any real issue with pulling power , even a little 8hp short frame will move a lot of weight in pulling .

I just bought one for a "D" hoping it would fit a classic.  Or an XI. 

 

I'm all ears!

      1984 C Series, dump trailer and leaf impeller
      By davidfindlay
      Looking to find a new home for my 84 (I think) C-145. It has a dump trailer with the enclosure for leaves, the PTO impeller to get the leafs into the trailer, the hoses for deck-to-impeller, impeller-to-trailer.
       
      I haven’t run it in over a year.
      The battery and the cable to the battery probably need to be replaced.
      Comes with a new head gasket still in the bag.
      Seat is cracked but still comfortable.
       
      Happy to answer questions or take other pictures.

      Wanted wheel horses
      By 87 416-8 horse
      I’m looking for wheel horse tractors for sale or for parts in the Eastern Nebraska or western Iowa area. Preferably 8 speed manuals. Pm me or comment with what you have. The worst I could say is it’s out of my price or distance range. Edit: engine is not important, it’s going to get an engine swap.
      Thanks,
      John

      predator 420 pto
      By BrianStasC-101
      Hello all. I am looking for suggestions on adapting the pto from my C series tractor to a harbor freight predator 420 13hp engine. I know the predator motors are a controversial topic however it is the route I have chosen for this particular machine. The intent was to mostly use it for plowing so no PTO required but it would be handy to have. Looking to hear from someone that has successfully done the swap that may offer any advice before I attempt to transfer it over. Just looking for any general pointers that will help me along the way to make it go as smoothly as possible.
