Hello All, I was wondering what 3 point kit I have here. Looks to me that someone has hacked up an old Cross Kit. Been searching for hours on the googler for pictures of parts and can't quite seem to match one up. Perhaps it's an older version and no pictures exist anymore. I can't even find pictures of worksaver kits anymore, Did worksaver quit making 3 point conversions? Looks like the welder will be coming out to make repairs to this wobbly mess. Just curious, Dave

| That's kind of a head scratcher, don't think I've seen one quite like that before. |

The arms look like a set of " Cross " 3 pt conversion that I have on a D-17. Looks like they have been cut and a home made crossbar cobbled up. Yeah bet it is sways and wobbles. ------------- You only need to know 3 things to be a plumber;Crap rolls down hill,Hot is on the left and Don't bite your fingernails 1964 D-17 SIV 3 Pt.WF,1964 D-15 Ser II 3pt.WF ,1960 D-17 SI NF,1956 WD 45 WF. |

Looks like a later Saginaw kit with a custom cross bar. ------------- German Shepherd dad 1957 Allis Chalmers WD45 #WD234847 1951 Allis Chalmers WD #WD88193 |

My tractor has the old style saginaw kit with a longer cross bar and braces on the lower lift arms, I will try to get some photos of it tomorrow. ------------- German Shepherd dad 1957 Allis Chalmers WD45 #WD234847 1951 Allis Chalmers WD #WD88193 |

It kinda looks cobbled together from some parts of other kits, possibly arms from another color tractor and homemade pieces. At my place any 3pt add on similar to what you have ends up on the scrap pile. I find the Factory type "wishbone" adapter and put them on implements and they remain there, turning them into a Snap-Coupler implement. Hitching a 3pt implement is a good way to sprain your back and pinch your fingers. The popularity of 3pt equipment can only be attributed to a certain kind of people in large numbers. ------------- 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 |
