I do have a 1276, but that is not going to be a work tractor. I am pretty sure I can set up a right side pedal. Well if it's a project you want.... different story! I'd go with the hand brake mod.

I admit, I have lost a few gray matter cells inhaling CO , but I never forget to pay my dues....and I owe you one. This could get ugly!!! I refuse to referee any skirmishes! I'll just stand in the back and heckle! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm no expert welder (not even a good one) but have had success welding the cast parts. Some of those parts are on the end of hydraulic rams and have held up since '08 A piece of steel can be fabricated to bolt on the pedal's tab instead of re positioning the tab to the bottom. Or a cast pedal from a 551 is set up with the tab on the bottom, or take a look at a 400 pedal which is made from bent steel, they also push on the rod. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
