Default QA-42A top link dimensions?

Only one more item that needs attending to on this new to me QA-36A snow thrower. The operators manual gives two desciptions for this piece..."top link and lift strap". At any rate, the ones on this unit were fabricated by the previous owner and appear to be too long.

Are the dimensions the same as the holes on the lift bracket?
Can anyone supply the distance (on center) of the two holes in the top link?

Regards, Guido

Thx Roland,
I do have the break down and the operators manual. They do not give dimensions though.

I may have to remove the deck and mount it to the 127 and see how the wear edge rests on the pavement.
Should the wear edge rest flat or raked forward?

Regards, Guido

I mounted the blower and it does appear to canting forward a bit. The links I have measure 12" on center.
I think 11 3/8" looks more like what it needs.

Your thoughts?

Guido

BTW: quick attach my foot... it won't come off.

Do this and you can roll the tractor in and out of it...it takes longer to put the belt on than put the attachment on the tractor.

Donovan: Getting it on was a breeze. Much easier than the dozer blade. Removing it was another story. The pins were stuck that slip into the QA assy. I wound up removing them to get it loose.

Matt: The top links that came with this unit do not have the provision to use the link as a jack. This is one of the reasons I am looking for the dimensions.

Dimensions please... Bueller, Bueller

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
