Tm tractor has the blocks $11 ea. I just bought a pair. I thought by the time you rounded up some square stock and drilled them for the 5/8 through bolt they were worth it. Dennis
Yea your prob right. Material isn't cheap, i do have some to make blocks but I'd be wasting alot of metal.Tm tractor has the blocks $11 ea. I just bought a pair. I thought by the time you rounded up some square stock and drilled them for the 5/8 through bolt they were worth it. Dennis
Yep that's it. Wow I wasn't expecting a drawing. Thanks Don. That will make layout alot easier.Is this the "curved" part you are talking about?
The bellcrank extension is supposed to be used with the blade, if you used the blade without it, you would probably just have 1 bolt at the Touch Control arm, holding the blade lift linkage onto the arm.That's the only thing I see missing is the curved part which I don't know if I'll even need

Will do and if they don't have it then I'll make 1.The bellcrank extension is supposed to be used with the blade, if you used the blade without it, you would probably just have 1 bolt at the Touch Control arm, holding the blade lift linkage onto the arm.
The the weight of lifting the blade would eventually wear the 2 holes crooked.
If you go to where the blade is, and the bellcrank extension isn't with the blade, I would ask if it is on a Cub there. You could show the man the picture of installing the parts and the bellcrank, in the blade operator's manual that I posted for you. It shows the bellcrank is supposed to be there.
Yea It looks like it will work out good!Here's a photo of a Loboy 54 Plow on a Regular Cub. This was/is Rick Prentice's tractor.

No it didn't, blade seems to work fine without it but it may give me an excuse to drag the neglected plasma cutter out and make 1. I have stock here to make the blocks and clevis to float the blade, I just don't know what the dimensions of the orginals were. Was the extension required for it? If so I'll make 1.Hi,
The blade looks good. Did you get the curved extension that goes on the Touch Control arm.
TM Tractor Parts has new blocks, that go in the square hole, for the blade lift.
I sent you a message.
The blocks are pretty simple. They're 2" long and the hole accommodates a 5/8" bolt, measure the opening for the width (sorry, can't get to the barn now for the other measurement).1.

Thanks, it's appreciated. Whenever you can get measurements for the clevis it would be much appreciated aswell.The blocks are pretty simple. They're 2" long and the hole accommodates a 5/8" bolt, measure the opening for the width (sorry, can't get to the barn now for the other measurement).
Good luck,
