Need help identify auction find

I picked up these 3pt arms and wheel hubs at an auction today. The hubs have the number A370 on them and "MM", so I"m thinking they are Minneapolis Moline, but I don"t know what they would fit.

The arms are painted the same color, but look identical to the arms that were on a BF Avery tractor at the same auction. There were no other Minneapolis equipment at the sale. Is there something else they might fit?

Does anyone else have an opinion? Thanks for the looking.

That crank wind leveler screw looks like the one on my grandfathers post hole digger, it was a Danuser, mounted on a WD allis, if memory serves correct...
 
I would almost, but not quiet, bet there are off a BF Minneapolis Moline, I have had some in the past and dat is vhat day look like.
MM bought the Avery farm machinery company in Louisville, Kantucky in aboot 1952, they were going to do great things, but 3 years later they closed up shop and went back to Minnesota.
 
Definetly MM. the hub looks just like the ones on a Z I used to own(and observed on others)Measure the axle size.Post here.Someone can probably tell you which tractor(s) they would fit.3 point arms probably from a 302/4 Star/445.... or similar...BF avery was 'absorbed' into MM at one point.At one short period of time Avery and MM were the 'same' tractor.
 
Yes, MM hubs. The 3pt arms are either from the BF Avery or possibly an add on 3pt on a ZA ZB or UB MM. Most all of the later MM 3pt arms, with the exception of the Jet Stars had pull out extendible links on the ends of the arms.
