1641 / 451 snowblower part
 

New here..new to me 1641, thanks for all the info very helpful. I finally got around to attaching the snowblower, and when I lifted it up this section of threaded rod fell out. .. see photos...Got it out of and lady's yard who was moving. Don't know what it goes to. It seems to work fine as is. It's about 7 inches long... 3/4 thick. Any ideas?

I looked at all of the exploded diagrams. I did not see this part.

Same here... thought I was losing it. Thanks.

Homemade rod to go in the sleeve hitch?

It didn't have a hitch.. the more I thought about it, I think it was lose in the garage I got it from and the lady thought it went with the tractor. Thanks though!

Looks like the piece that goes in that goes in the top of a house leveling post

I bet that's it.. the blower was right next to a stack of lally columns
