1450 Thrower Question
 

Hey everyone I know the thrower for my Garden Tractor is a QA-42A. I found someone selling a thrower off a 127 and wondering who in here can answer if thats the same thrower. Guy is asking $75 without shoot rod.
:BB&YS:

Well, there's a possibility. The QA-36 and QA-42 were the earlier models made - QA meaning quick-attach. These models only fit the narrow frame tractors. The newer models were QA-36A and QA-42A, the second A standing for 'Adjustable.' The QA-xxA throwers were adjustable to fit both the narrow frame OR wide frame. The 127 is a narrow frame rig, and will fit either model. Your 1450 will need the QA-xxA model. I am not sure if there are any distinguishing marks or features to differentiate the two throwers at first glance (other than the serial no. plate).

I would ask for the model number of the thrower for sale as it may or may not work.
