If I decide to put it on the HT20D or HDT1000 I will still have to find the proper propshaft. I can put it on one of my 1886s as it uses the same propshaft as the tiller, which I already have. 4 bowtiebutler956, slf-uk, Triumph66 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slf-uk 914 #2 Posted February 6, 2015 Great score! Must be great to have a choice of which large frame to put it on If you want to put it on the HT20D or HDT1000 I would have thought that it would not be too difficult to get the correct length shaft made, assuming you have the ends. It is hard to see how it fits on the tractor from the auction pictures. It would be great if you can post some pictures once you have it on the tractor.

Chris 642 #3 Posted February 6, 2015 Lucky. Bet we will never have anything like that in the UK Years ago I knew of an HT20 which had a cab. It was hung up in the shed for years & when the tractor was taken away it ended up in the skip. I know, I saw it in there. If only I had known all these years later I would own an HT20 it would have fitted. That would have been super rare in the UK 1 OldBuzzard reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph66 1,256 #4 Posted February 6, 2015 OB, A great find and as Chris said rare as hen's teeth in the UK. Well done! 1 OldBuzzard reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OldBuzzard 186 #6 Posted February 7, 2015 ... That would have been super rare in the UK OB, A great find and as Chris said rare as hen's teeth in the UK. Well done! Actually, they are that rare here in the States as well. 1 Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph66 1,256 #7 Posted February 7, 2015 You did well to get one if it's that rare in the States. If one come up here in the UK it will probably be mega expensive for those in the know. Look forward to seeing it installed and seeing it working. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slf-uk 914 #8 Posted February 7, 2015 From the information I have I can't see one being listed as an option in the UK. If anyone has one in the UK it will have probably been imported specially. I guess if one ever did come up for sale it would ever be mega expensive or cheap because nobody knows what it is. When I see Bolens attachments for sale I always hope nobody knows what they are but that never works out and I end up paying the earth. Iain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for mounting, it looks like it uses the three threaded holes circled in this pic: 2 slf-uk and Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
