I am looking up parts for a friends model L gravely and was wondering if the connecting rod is the same between the 5.0 and 6.6 HP engines as the machines serial is right around the change in engines and I can't ready the full serial number in the pictures I took.

Thanks:thanku:

As far as I know yes. You can check the parts lists at www.oldgravelys.net and compare part numbers but I think they are all the same. Some of them with more experience will chime in shortly.

I restored a 1949 machine years ago that I believe was 5 HP. It used the old style rod with the "+" cross section, which was bent. I replaced it with a used rod from Richard, which was the current style.
