This past weekend I decided to try to get dads old #31 sickle mower going to do some cutting that needs done before winter. Besides I may use it next year to cut hay. It had not seen duty for approx 15 years or so. Needless to say the wooden pitman only lasted about 20 minutes. To make a long story short I lost the spring which goes into the end of the pitman between the wooden part and the metal end somewhere in the field. Does anyone have the part # or know if these are available any longer? I believe this uses the same basic parts as the 27 mowers, as the pitman I bought showed it would fit them as well. 2nd question: My touch control is leaking pretty heavily where one of the control rods enters the unit. It appears there is a boot which is pulled away or ?? as I can see the shiny rod where it is leaking. Is there any way to repair short of removing the unit and rebuilding? Thanks in advance.
