451 Snow Blower question
 

Would a 451 snow blower be made to fit on a 126? Would a 126 have the power to run this? Or is this strictly a wide frame blower like a 149/169 etc.??

It's a strictly wide frame blower. I'm sure it could be made to fit. But I think you would find the 126 more than a little under-powered for it.

J-Mech,
Thanks for the reply. My knowledge of snow blowers is still very limited but what would you say the minimum hp to run this style blower would be? 149? 169? Bigger still? I got a heck of a deal on one if i want it lol.

I would say a 169, but that might not be enough as it is going to tax the motor pretty good. If you had something bigger I would say go with that. We run a 450 blower on an 1811 and it can bog that pretty good and it is an 18hp.

I'm with you. But IDK if a 16hp single would even do it. It does work the 18HP twin HARD! :biggrin2:

Really? Wow I would have never thought you would need that much power!

I don't think even with a bunch mods the 451 would work well on any thing but a plastic nose since it's setup for the 6 in pto pulley
