Thats called a steering arm. Older tractors had a
vertical shaft in the gearbox that was square on
the bottom end and the steering arm went on that.
Not a good Idea. I once shimmed one with pieces of
a tin can till it was tite. Don't know how long it
lasted. My 1949 started out with a square end, but
I was lucky enough to find and elderly parts man
who knew that IH once made a kit to change to the
tapered shaft. Not available as a kit anymore ,but
the individual parts are. You need to convert to
the new style with the end of the vertical shaft
tapered. You get a new vertical shaft, and a new
steering arm,and a nut to hold the arm to the
shaft. Your sector gear on the vertical shaft is
probrobly sloppy to needs a new key in the shaft.
You need to know what tierod ends are used, in
ordered to get the right steering arm. The ones
like a car , or the ones IH used on early tractors
If you allready have the tapered shaft,You need
to replace the key in the sector gear, bearings
and seals in the steering box housing. Questions?
E-mail me .
