Picked up a 3 pt adapter from a 45 I saw rotting in a fence row. Guy wouldn't sell the whole tractor because he is "going to get it going" I guess after he cuts the trees down that are growing around it.
What I'm missing is top link bracket and what I think was the stabiliser between the arms. Does any one have the dimensions to make them or just better off to buy them.
Thanks

Here is one that sold on ebay - looks homemade.
I believe Allis original were cast.
Goes on the crossshaft.

The Allis top link bracket for the 45 would have been forged steel not cast. ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

I believe they are made of cast steel rather than forged steel. A-C
used a lot of cast steel on their equipment which is much, much
stronger than cast iron. Also somewhat malleable and easily welded.
Having said that, it would seem they are made of gold by the
prices they go for on e-pay. LOL
