Thanks Wardner! I've been wondering what it was called. I'm going to keep it on there, my goal is to keep the tractor as close to the original condition that my great-grandfather bought it in back in 1945/46. The upright bar on the left I had to replace do to a crack that had been welded over several times. I still have the original one and I ought to fix it this summer.
My great-grandfather pulled Minneapolis-Moline gas-powered combine, a New Idea single row corn picker and a 2 row bottom plow with it. I also know that he used it in combination with a WW1 era gun caisson to pull logs to his neighbor's sawmill, and ran the sawmill with the I-4. There's a older gentleman at my church that runs his sawmill with a 1950 Farmall M and he said that he could see my tractor running a sawmill, the operator would just have to go easy with larger logs. If you click on the link, there are some pictures of the combine and corn picker in that album too.
I was surprised at how stiff that spring is the first time that it gave a little when Dad and I were pulling those stumps out.
