Minnmoline64 29 #1 Posted May 2, 2019 I recently was given a snowblade off of a newer Toro wheel horse, I don't remember the model. I was looking to mount it to my no name 8. Is there a bracket or something that you need to make this work. I can see how the lift mechanism would work but I don't know where the bar across the back would mount.

Stepney 2,325 #2 Posted May 2, 2019 There's a rear axle bracket/clip unit that bolts on. Don't have any photos to post but I'm sure someone else will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minnmoline64 29 #3 Posted May 2, 2019 I thought it looked like I was missing a bracket but I honestly didn't have any idea. I'm still pretty new to wheel horses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 38,024 #4 Posted May 2, 2019 The "axle bracket" bolts to the rear axle housing. The bar across the rear of the plow frame will attach to the axle bracket. I m not familiar with the lift mechanism shown on your plow frame, but that does not look like the lever you will need to angle the blade . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minnmoline64 29 #5 Posted May 2, 2019 Just doing some quick measuring between the lift bracket and the rear bar made that rear bar come to about the center of the rear axle from the mower deck lift arm. Was there a different angle lever available for these because now that I look at it the handle might not clear the foot panel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,033 #6 Posted May 2, 2019 What is the model and serial number on the dozer frame white decal? Looks like a 5xi blade to me. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minnmoline64 29 #7 Posted May 2, 2019 Model is 79355 and serial number is 210000312. That model number sounds familiar but I'm not for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Minnmoline64 29 #9 Posted May 2, 2019 Looking at it now that will probably be what I do with it, but for free I couldn't pass it up. Thanks to everyone for their help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,710 #11 Posted May 2, 2019 Here is the picture of the attach-a-matic that bolts onto the rear axle. The holes with the levers would be facing down to accept the blade frame. They run about $25 at shows. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
