i have contacted the vendor and unfortunately the snowblower you have will not work with the PGT9000. The blower is a 2007 model and was not designed for the new platform nor is there a mounting kit available. The current model  is 24838 which is $1039, $999 if you are a Craftsman Club Member. you will also need the 24831 Garden tractor mounting kit for $44.99

Hi Tom, sounds like you want to compare the frames. 2006 saw the last of the Garden Tractors with rail frames. Here's a parts diagram for an '06 917.286460 if it helps.

Thanks for the tractor information, but it does not help. I need the model # or part # for a 2004 garden tractor.

917.274980...it has a manual but might be a year or 2 older.

I bought a 2009 PGT9000 garden tractor and a 46" snowblower. There are no mounting brackets made for this combination. I modified brackets and mounted the snowblower and used it today, it worked great and fast with only 6 inches of snow

Would you do some rating on this PGT9000 tractor ? Is it true that gage wheels of the deck will leave some striking on the ground when you make a tight turn and the ground is bumpee ?
