C-160 Front Headlamps/C-Series

Recommended Posts

Here is one for the ages................I'm looking for the crimp connector to crimp or solder the little contact button on the bottom of a front light socket for a circa 1975 Wheelhorse tractor. I have the washer/insulator and the spring. The wire is there but the wire lost the little button connector that the bulb contacts via the + wire to make a connection. I have nothing in my bag of 12v goodies and I don't have an old C series in a bone yard anymore to scavenge a part off of.

Shoot me a PM or post a link f you have an alternative or an actual part that will work for this.

I have a new lens and everything but the contact for the bulb to complete this particular fix on the basket-case C-160 saga! (More in the works).

 

Thanks in Advance! (As always)!

In a pinch, I've put a drop of solder on the wire end, and filed it flat...

You know....I'm glad you guys are out there to help. I never knew these to be a stocked electrical auto part.

I need to put a few of these "issues" with this restore behind me!

 

Thanks again!
