The first(I think) were just folded steel. Then the better ones are cast. Then they added a boss where a shaft could be bolted between them for extra support. [Reply]  [No Email]

Maybe they only supplied them if you bought an implement also. Someone on here must be old enough to know. [Reply]  [No Email]

Got lucky on the price, but I have noticed a lot of single ones on eBay. You might be able to match a set cheaper. I do have an extra set now, but they are a mis-matched set. Kind of on topic, were the snap couplers standard issue with a new AC or were they an option/optional part you had to buy? [Reply]  [No Email]

It was standard on the WD45. Many WD tractors were retro-fitted later. Poster is referring to the lift arm latches. [Reply]  [No Email]

Be prepared to pay, a good set usually isn't very cheap. This post was edited by orionsrx at 10:23:27 07/17/12 2 times. [Reply]  [No Email]
