Getting ready to repaint a '47 WD9 and it only came with front headlamp bracket mounted on the front, on the bottom (side) of the lower radiator tank. Every other WD9 I've seen (there are three nearby) all have the front headlights mounted about 10" from the top of the radiator grill on the sides. My 1 bracket looks like an original IH part. There are no holes in the upper part of the grill side where all the others have the headlamps mounted. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi again, If it is an ID9 grill it will have the INTERNATIONAL logo on it, if it is a WD9 it will have the McCORMICK DEERING. Good Luck, Chuck

The headlights were mounted low on some or most I models. You may have a I shell which otherwise is the same as the W.

Hi, I have not seen low mounted lights either, what kind of bracket? The upper ones have a 3 bolt base on a 3/4 pipe. Soon after I bought mine I moved the lights to the back of the hood so they would light the gauges, liked that much better. Chuck

I've farmed with WD9's, worked on'em in our repair shop, seen a lot of'em at shows and I have one myself and I have yet to see the headlights mounted low. I don't believe the 9's had an orchard model but I may be wrong there. One of the tractors I bought for parts to restore mine, was a 1943 model and it didn't have an electric system. It was crank start only and it didn't have any mounting holes for the headlights on the grille, but the radiator sides did. I just figured that IH used the same radiators on all of them but used different grilles as the application dictated.
