 Topic: Izzere a name for these things?
Posted: 15 May 2011 at 9:12pm |
Okay, so I gotta re-mount a drawbar on a '39 B, and I know there's a metal tab with a pin that goes here:  Tell me what they're actually called, so when I go lookin' for a couple, people know what I'm talkin' about!

The parts book calls them clamp assemblies, P/N 225770.

I kinda like "metal tab with a pin" myself....whole lot more descriptive! Guess the words might depend on whom you are talking to.

I made one for my C. It had an Athens drawbar on it when I got it. I got a standard drawbar off of a parts tractor, but one of the clamps was stuck in the final so bad it wouldn't come out, and I put the blue tool to it. I just measured the other one, got a piece of flat bar stock that size, drilled two holes, cut a piece of round stock the right size, and welded it into the flat stock. Little orange paint, and noone would ever know.

I didn't do it! It was a short, fat, tall, skinny guy that looked like me!

They come in two sizes...later ones have a bigger bolt? I think.

Yes Eldon, you are correct. Early = 1/2 inch, later= 5/8th inch

Pretty easy to make like like Dream says. Measure the distance between the hole centers on the final, cut a piece of flat stock and drill 2 holes in the right place. Cut a piece of round stock and weld in the big hole.
