Hello everyone, I recently bought a Frontier RS1173 tiller and it is missing the jack. (square tube with holes in it) I called JD and they want $60 for a new one that would have to be ordered and they don't know when it would be available. Can someone that has a Frontier Tiller let me know the length and measurement of the hole placement?

Thanks in advance and have a great weekend!

Fake it.... Get square tubing that fits in tube on tiller and raise the connection points (3PH) to where you can connect it, mark tube and drill.... Done...

^^^ yes, or skip the trip to town and rip an old 2x4 down to size with your skill saw and drill the hole. It just has to balance the load, there isn't a lot of weight involved.
