Thanks Jeff, the tractor it’s going on has a snow cab, so I’m trying to get an idea of how far out from the console GE intended the crank to be. 6 inches sounds reasonable, I’m just looking to make sure I don’t spend the winter whacking the curtain as I crank the chute? I’d appreciate it very much if someone who has the original bracket could measure this distance for me. Anyone? Nick From: jlantonucci comcast net [mailto:jlantonucci comcast net] I just use a 6 in long i bolt threaded into the console. Jeff T-Mobile.

What I need to determine is how far out from the console the original bracket holds the crank rod. If someone would be willing to measure theirs, I’d greatly appreciate it! Nick |
