Official name of the narrow front mud deflecting fork?

Does anyone know the official name for those front wheel pedestal mud deflection fork devices?

Me too. Check the online parts book. I would guess you could get the super official name from the book.

Not finding the super official name or even the semi-official name in the on-line parts book. Seems mud scraper is good enough, am able to find past ads on ebay and ytmag. I've been ale to find three pictures of them, all different, one probably home made. They seem hard to come by, I saw one conversation suggesting they were all after market items. If that is the case I wonder why the the threads are tapped on the pedestal where they attach. These pictures are of old ads, still looking for one.

I think I've seen the middle one the most. The top one looks handy because it is super adjustable.

Yep, nothing under the M in the chassis or attachments section that I saw.

YES I want one... would look great on my 560 project

I see them for sale every so often around my neck of the woods. I've always known them as mud scrapers. Dad nudges me when we see one for sale, he thinks they look cool, I do too, but I always tell him if I'm in enough mud to need one I've got bigger problems. I think a set would look cool on my 450, I've just been too cheap to buy them when I see them.

Around here if you had amounted corn picker and had to pick corn when the ground was wet and sticky, you usually had a set. As I rember, Yetter made a set and maybe M&W Don't think they were an option from IH.

No way homemade. My father and I's 53 SH and my uncle's 45 M have a set identical to the top pic and my 54 SMDTA has a set identical to the middle pic.

I don't think IHC made these, and they were all aftermarket. I am not sure on this, but I believe it to be the case.

I guess thse mut have been a Northern thing, and didn't make it this far South (Louisiana),

Our 240 would make the neatest, round clay ball between the wheels all winter. Threw one at my brother one spsring when it was dry, hard, and heavy, and almost knocked him out.

Check a corn picker parts book, many parts like the F series corn picker hoods with the cast iron ring don't appear in the tractor part books, only in the Picker parts book.

yeah Seth, I"d be interested in one. Email me.
thanks
