scorpion red horse 66 8 #1 Posted July 11, 2021 I have a Side Mounted Sickle Model # 7-1311 it was mounted on a 857 tractor. I would like to know if this would fit on a 1972 Raider 14. It has the Mule drive kit on it. What would this sickle be worth? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,045 #2 Posted July 11, 2021 According to what I'm finding the 7-1311 is for a long frame which is what your Raider 14 is. But you say it was mounted on an 857? That's a short frame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lane Ranger 10,947 #3 Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) 7-1311 Wheel Horse sickle will adjust to fit on short frame tractors. 42 blade is a better one for smaller hp motors. The U connection rod in back that attaches to frame at transmission link should move in and out to adjust length. I had my old 50 inch 7-1311 on my 702 and 854 and mounted fine.

I was wondering about that Lane. I was thinking the one I had would do that but that's been over 20 years ago so I wasn't sure and I don't recall it ever being mentioned here.
