pfrederi 18,681 #2 Posted April 6, 2012 3/4 ID 7/8 OD Flanged bushings. The original bushing were 1/4" long...I used 1/2" and a filed them a bit to clear the gas tank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KyBlue 655 #3 Posted April 8, 2012 I made my own Rockshaft. No Dimensions used, just went off pictures and what I thought would work ... Tacked the parts in place pulled it out and finish welded it. I think I'm going to modify mine a bit this year though... Make it a double shear type of attachment for the lift chain ... that tiller REALLY puts a stress on it ... Only photo I currently have ... You can sorta see it though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How did you remove the original WH rear lift? I can' t figure how to remove the horizontal pin/bolt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

312Hydro 474 #7 Posted July 24, 2012 Here are a few pics of the one I made for my 1991 312H. I used the hitch pin for the shaft, bushings from the brake pedal and made my own arm.Works great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AEarlCheal 1 #8 Posted July 24, 2012 Thanks for the response. The pin in my tractor appears to have frozen inside the hole that passes through the transmission housing. The retainers on the end of the 10 are missing. I have soaked the whole area with penetrating oil. Maybe in a few days I can drive the pin free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
