Holy Cow - Rear right-angle belt pulley

I think I will have to sell mine. It is new old stock.

I suppose it is a rare item.

Last summer, I offered a pintle hitch from my I-9. It fits all series 4, 6, and 9 standards plus 04-06 standards and maybe more. I know it is rare. Just ask Howard H. I saved all the big dot-heads, sandblasted, and painted it. No one was willing to hit my reserve of $300.

I don't have have a parts book that list the 1000 rpm units so I can't compare the internals with the 540 units. I do know the 540 gear boxes are offered in several ratios.

However, the ratios are fairly close to 1-to-1. A little plus and a little minus. The ratios are probably similar to the Cub and A/C right angle boxes.

The gearbox offered on eBay may be the same as the 540 box but fitted with a 540/1000 adaptor. The adaptor wouldn't require more than 3/4" additional space which could be made up with a spacer between the tractor and gearbox.

I don't know if these assumptions are correct. I am just guessing. If they were the same, it would be cheaper to inventory only one box and the conversion parts.

Things are not always as they seem.

Do you still have that pintle hitch?

I have the bars too. They only fit 9 series and probably 560/660 standards. All four mounting bars are easily fabricated for the other sizes. I know the dimensions for the 4 series. I think I can calculate the 6 series bars.

Took me 5-6 hours to remove the hitch. I had to use my 50-to-1 torque multiplier.
