I assume the 1350 would be the same way?   [Reply]   [No Email]

Below is what I found in the parts manuals: The 335 through G1000 all call for the same part number 2 wheeled tricycle front end (10A6544). The larger (&newer) tractors don't show a tricycle front end in the parts manuals so I went with other parts as follows: the Jet3Super, U302 & G1000 Vista all use the same vertical shaft (10A18358). The G1350, G950 & G1000 Vista all use the same center steering arm that fits in the wedge (10A24101). From what I found, I would assume that the wedges are all the same. I know that we put a 1957 335 tricycle front end on a 1971 G1350 a few years ago & it worked fine.   [Reply]   [Send Email]

What this means is that when you install a tricycle front end, you will need to either weld a piece of 1/2" square keystock to the top of the clamp that holds it on or if you want to take chances, you can just put it in there and hope it doesn't fall out.   [Reply]   [Send Email]

The hub may be the same but bearings are different on them. Not sure about the 900s on up if they are heavier yet.   [Reply]   [No Email]
