finding steering spindle bolt?

My Dad has a 2N, and has partially disassembled the front. The bolt/pin that hols the steering arm to the top of the spindles are in bad shape; we can't figure if they were just damaged, or the wrong ones and damaged too.

I looked in the parts site here; they do not list them.

Also, Engine serial number 9N2536 indicates early 1939 model.

Thanks

Do they look like this? If so - that is not a 2N spindle arm pin - this is for a VERY early 9N tractor. They discontinued this method due to unsatisfactory life expectancy. The replacement was an arm that used a regular 7/16" - 20 X2 1/4" cap bolt.

A board member made these and I snagged a set for my 1939 9N as it still has the original spindle arms.

HTH,
Dan

the tractor was sold to my Dad as a 2N. He did a little research; the engine serial number indicates a 9N. It is becoming clearer that this may be the case.

I have a '41 Farmall "A". I was able to verify the serial number and the block/head/tranny casting numbers to verify the year through Guy Faye's books.

Is it possible to do this on the 9N/2N series?

Will a 2N steering arm fit the spindle with regular bolts as you mention? If not, we may need to go to the local machine shop too...

My best bet would be to obtain these from Greg or TOH. They both say these are not hard for them to make - I envy those guys.

Good luck,
Dan

Appreciate the help,
Robert
