Snowblower 1690169 atteched to 7116


Guest

Recommended Posts

I have just purchased a snowblower because I thought I would fit on my Simplicity 7116. I called the local simplicity dealer and they said it would fit, but when I looked on the site here it doesn't mention it fitting? The number on the snowblower is 1690169 (36" Snowthrower). Does anyone know if this will or not? I don't want to spend the money to buy the hitch if it will not hook up correctly -- the local dealer is quoting me $185 for the hitch!! Any help you can give would be appreciated! Thanks, Jason

The 1690169 snowthrower is listed for vertical shaft engine tractors. Your 7116 has a horizontal shaft engine. BUT, that doesn't mean the snowthrower itself won't work, it MIGHT with the proper hitch.[A href='http://www.simpletractors.com/clubhouse/ShowMessage.asp?MsgID=2438&mode=short&startwith=120']http://www.simpletractors.com/clubhouse/ShowMessage.asp?MsgID=2438&mode=short&startwith=120[/a]

They sure are overpriced on those snowthrower hitches. I made my own hitch for my 7116H and 42" blower. If you have a hacksaw, a drill, some flat stock iron and a welder you can easily make your own hitch for a fraction of what they want.
