Hi it's Bryce. I have my Ferguson TO-30 torn apart in the shop for restoration, and am needing you guys opinion on something. This old tractor has the 1 1/8 pto shaft, the tractor came with a very old snow-blower, and a ford 501 mower. Both implements have the square tube pto shaft, with 1 1/8 U joints. I have other implements that I would like to use with the Ferguson, and other tractors that I would kinda like to use with the snow-blower, but can't decide what to do. Here are my options: 1, Change the PTO shaft in the Ferguson to 1 3/8, and also change the U joints on all the implements. 2, I could buy one of those slip on conversions that allows me to easily switch the tractor from 1 1/8 to 1 3/8. Option 2 seems easier and less costly, but what I am wondering is if the slip on converter weakens the PTO somehow, and also if I can find a 1 3/8 to 1 1/8 converter for my other tractors so that I could use them with the implements. WHAT SHOULD I DO!! Thanks, Bryce
