Hi Vance, There are no cross-reference charts for Sears Ca. tractors so I can’t say for sure – BUT that’s one of the first 486 snowblowers. The 46 inch was only used until 2003 and there were no other snowblowers sold for the Craftsman GT tractor during that time.

Hi Matthew, The Sears Craftsman made after 2015 and the current Craftsman now owned by Stanley, Black & Decker are all made by MTD. The Sears model number prefix is 247. So your snowblower will not fit any of them.

You snowblower only fits Craftsman tractors with the 917 prefix and I recommend only attaching one to a garden tractor style.

Thanks for quick response Paul. Next question , is my older snowblower still compatible with a newer craftsman.

Almost feel like I should just get new blower with new tractor not sure of life expectancies of a snowblower it is 12 years old not sure how much longer it’ll last. Live in northern Michigan so machine gets used frequently during winter months.

Just looking for friendly opinion.

Thanks in advance
Matthew

Hi Joeseph, There are no cross reference charts for that. Craftsman only fit Craftsman and Husqvarna had their own snowblowers also.

Hi Matthew, Husqvarna has their own snowblowers and Craftsman had their own snowblowers. Even though they were probably the same, no one has ever made a cross-reference chart to see if a Craftsman will fit on a Husqvarna. On top of that, since Husqvarna completely redesigned their tractors this year we don’t know if ANY old equipment will mount to the new frame.
In addition, was the snowblower mounted on a tractor with one center rod that attached the deck to the tractor, or were there two rods that went to the deck on the front of the tractor. If there was one rod there might be a chance it might fit – but – if there are two rods then it WILL NOT fit. (the snowblower originally came with both types of mounts but most people threw away the mounts they didn’t use.)

Here is a link to the snowblower manual to explain this more: I have no access to any information on the Canadian Craftsman products. Sears.ca always had a tight lid on any info including parts and operator’s manuals. When they closed their doors it disappeared. That said,The tractor was made by Husqvarna

Hi Camden, No, I can’t help. The fit-up charts I have only have the Husqvarna built tractors listed. I don’t know where to send you other than try the guys over at mytractorforum.com
