Fair price for set of cultivators

To add to what Glen posted, on the set screws, do yourself a favor and get actual set screws. They have a cupped taper on the end. You’ll thank yourself, because if you use regular bolts, they will deform on the end when you tighten them. And it’s a pain in the butt to get them back out again. And use a jam nut in combination with them, so the set screw remains tight
 
Below are pictures of the setscrew I use at the square hole, for the Cub 22 mower. It uses 1 setscrew.
The square shaft doesn't go all the way through the hole.
There may be setscrews with 6 sided heads.

Mine came with tapered bolts screwed into the part that mounts on the square tube. The tractor also has tapered bolts screwed into the front bolster. I think that’s what you guys are referring to.

I’ll try to take some pictures tomorrow when I have some time.

Looks to me like it started out as one that had the two bends near the gas tank. The big gentle bend in about the middle is the only one I see that doesn't belong there. It should be a fairly easy fix.

Ok cool. I don't have a press. Maybe I can just bring that one part with me to the next Cub Fest. I've never used a hydraulic press before, I could learn something new! :)

It's literally just a bottle jack in a frame that will put downward pressure on something that you are holding against the press frame.

The IH tapered head bolts are used to hold some implements on the Cub, where there is a taper at the bolt holes on the implement.
They are different than setscrews.
Setscrews have a hollow end, that digs into the metal it is tightened against.
Below are pics of the tapered head bolts from TM Tractor Parts, to show the difference from the setscrew above.
