Which is the correct drawbar hoop. The narrow with the straight sides, or the wide one? If the narrow, would one from a WD/WD45 fit? Also which lift arm latches are supposed to be on it? ------------- Looking at the past to see the future. '53 WD, '53 WD45, WD snap coupler field cultivator, #53 plow,'53 HD5B dozer Duct tape.... Can't fix stupidity. But will muffle the sound of it! |

| At s/n 24001, they went to the wide drawbar bail. Prior to s/n 24001 they had the narrow bail similar to a WD/WD45. However, a WD/WD45 bail will not fit on a D-17. Also, after 60 years, any bail could be on any D-17 by now, except a series 4, which is unique to it. |

| Lift arm latches should have the loop and the stabilizer bar I know mine does. |

Snap-Coupler latches over the years. HD Snap-Coupler Latch (#5) It has a lot more "meat" than any of the earlier versions.    |

I have some NOS #5 versions available. ------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |
