Can this 76ish 350 Crawler have a 2-pt auger installed

[JamesandDawn]

Hello, My husband and I have a 350 76ish 350 crawler up and running. It has a rake in the back on 2-pt system and bucket in front. All works well. Can I put an accessory of some sort that turns a rake and the pto system into an auger or post hole digger.

I haven't figured out how to post pics yet. But hopefully I can get some direction to go on this forum or somewhere else to help with a 2-pt auger system. [/img][/url]

Hi,

Sounds like you are referring to a scarifier, used for breaking up the hard packed surface of a road. That is all they ever did. They did not have any way to hook anything else up to them. So, you would have to fabricate whatever you'd need to hang an auger on.

350s did have a 3 pt hitch option and a PTO option but folks rarely bought them. So, they are pretty hard to come by on their own. And, not too easy to find with another crawler attached, either.

Photos have to be stored elsewhere than on this site, like Photobucket, and then linked to before we can see them here, BTW.

James, if you search for "350 AND pto" you will find a number of threads on this subject that go into more detail. One thing to note that is at max engine rpm, the PTO is turning closer to 750 rpm than 540 rpm.
