I never have. I believe they were made of much superior steel. Henry always advertised that his N steel was Vanadium steel. What is Vanadium?? I have read I think that it is made from iron ore from somewhere in South America from a mine he owned. Zane [Reply]  [No Email]

Your call i guess the tractor I did it on is long gone not my problem anymore... I have seen it a few times it even put a twist inside the coupler at the PTO support... Good luck... Me I would buy a new one and save the old one for a property stake... I have a dozen lay'n around maybe ones very good (Not for sale)the rest are to worn for my like'n,,, if Jim.UT said he had a good'n and I needed one I would consider it... [Reply]  [No Email]
