Hi all
Does anybody know where I can obtain the turnbuckle and locking nuts from please.
I have the chains and eye bolts.
Much appreciated.

Hi Jerry,

I went to a bolt shop, purchased the right and left hand thread nuts and simply welded them to a piece of suitable tube to make mine up. It worked like a treat and is almost impossible to tell the difference compared to the one real one I had. It only took a day to order in the reverse thread nuts. That surprised me more than anything. Make sure you take the eye bolts with you when you order the nuts so they can measure the thread size.

If you need dimensions let me know and I will measure mine for you when I go to the tractor this weekend.

Regards, Frank.

I've used the Major ones from Agriline as they appear to be of the same type.
