I hope you find them. :smile2

I stayed a little late last night and wrapped up the front needle setup and got the rear wheels on. I have to shim the front steering shaft a little, put the new HD sealed bearings in the front, refill the transmission this morning then I think most of the work is done minus running it a little and changing the oil. :thumb1

This tractor always had the Schaeffer paraffin extreme grease used on it and I've yet to find any real wear on anything, I'm surprised so many things still look almost new after all the work she's done. :smile2

The hitch is a Wheel Horse part. All of the original attachments fit in it like plows, discs, cultivators, etc. I have a stay on it to make it where it won't move, if you want it to raise up and down just take the bolt out of the stay and hook it to the chain, then it raises and lowers with the lift arm.

All the stuff I made this week is for the slot hitch, and have made most of it for years for other peeps. It's easy to change things by just taking out the pin and changing what goes in there. Once the receiver hitch is in there you can use everything you could imagine that can go on a truck hitch. I just expanded the original design to include other things and make things real easy to change in a second with no tools needed. Some pics are below. :thumb1

I keep the 5/8" x 2" steel around so I guess anything I decide to weld on a piece will go on the tractor quick and easy. I like easy, easy is good lol. :tounge2
