rear lift rod connection ?

[green 4 acres]

I am trying to build a lift rod ( rear) for the 3pt on my 128. Does any one have a picture of theirs to get some plans of it? I take it, there is a floating ring bushing between the pin and arm for ease and wear?

From my limited experience I have seen people selling these for narrow frames and wide frames. I thought they were all the same in the rear end? I need a lift for a 1650. On the bottom bracket, what is the thickness of steel and is that an inside measurement or outside measurement? What is the height of the bracket? What is the hole diameter? I have seen another bracket that is smaller that sits inside of the larger one to create ears for the sleeve hitch to sandwich. Is this necessary? I will be mounting a tiller angle gearbox also is that the same bracket that sits under the gearbox or do I need another one?

The one shown is for a wide frame (it will fit your 1650) EXCEPT, there are 2 kinds of 1650!!

One uses the pin shown in the diagram, the other uses special bolts.

Look at your frame and see if the holes are smooth or threaded.

The one thing not shown in any of the sketches is the angles or offsets of the parts that will be welded.

I fabricated one, it was simple enough, but, luckily I tack welded it first and found out where I needed offsets.

The long bar is 1/2" thick. I fabed the rear piece from square tube.

thanks for the pic. i have 2 holes up top that looked to be where a lift would mount to. they were smooth and i di not notice any threading. how would it be threaded as the frame seemed to be thin there. im guessing the threaded ones had a boss. oh well mine is about an august 1979 model so i dont know if they went one or another by year.

You will have to get a set of Frankenstein bolts or weld on spacers on the inside to let the 5/8" rod to slide thru. Cotter pins hold that rod in place. Otherwise the rockshaft fits onto the Frankenstein bolts and is held in place with those.
