Paul B - did the really early units not have a grease fitting on the axle for this pin? I don't recall what unit I got the pin from in the pic I posted but it didn't have the groved area for grease. Another question for you, specific for 70/100 units. I have a headlight assembly off a 100 and it has 3 retaining rings for each headlight bulb. The parts list shows this version and a 2 ring version, and notes the front ring of the 3 ring version is NLA. Was the 3 ring version used throughout production? Or was the 2 ring version introduced during production, or was it a change added after production? Just trying to find out what I have.
Michael S - I see Donald T posted a pic but I believe you need a few more parts to make the upgrade. As I recall IH changed the lift handle linkage some point in the Quiet Line series and then made it available in a kit to upgrade the xx9 series. Maybe Charlie can fill in the details.

Yepper that's it.
That's actually for the Quietline series, but it's also an upgrade for wide frames.

My 149 lift will work but the hole is bigger in the bracket were the pin goes in.I will get that from Charlie and bend the end so it will work.I think there must have been more to the kit to repair my 149 , but I can make that part work.My lever has a lot of play now.

Donald T - I swear there are a couple more things necessary to make that bracket work. I'll have to see if the upgrade is listed/shown in the parts book.

I`am sure there is another bracket to the two from the lift controller.
Now Off to town to get some more resperators. I did get some prime on my 450 blower this am.
I think I should put some paint on the sub frame next .

Donald T - there is a nut and bolt to be added, and a bushing with a retaining ring. You don't need to change the hole in your lift handle. Hopefully Kraig or someone else can provide a really good close up pic.
Kraig - Keeper of the Photos - do you have pics of this lift handle lever bracket back dated to a 149? Or do you have pics of it on the Quiet Line series. They need to be really close up so you can see how it attaches, and especially see the nut and bolt that holds that bracket/lever on the lift handle.

Harry,
The 3 ring version was used on the 70/100 initially, but the 2 ring version can be found on the later versions, so I assume it was a production change. Nothing I have list a S/N break for a change. I have seen more of the 2 ring versions than the 3 ring, but it is not uncommon to find both.
The axle pin grease zerk came about after the 70/100 and first shows up with the 71/1x2/3 in the parts manual copies I have, but if it was not greased on a regular basis, it didn't do much good. It would appear it was added in response to a problem that developed with the pin in the 70/100.
