This is a followup to my post about a Narrow C front on a B.
I was able to get a early C front end, C Cowl, drag link, and steering arm.
The front bolted on no problem. The drag link balls were shot so I am looking for a replacement, but I used what I had for now. The steering arm I had to modify by taking the B arm and cutting the shaft off and welding the C arm to it as the C steering shaft is larger than the B.
Works good so far, the turn radius is sharp which will be a boon when using the sickle. The short front steering arm makes the turning to fast I think, maybe this why Allis changes to a longer one.
As a bonus when hooking up the belly sickle it is so much easier now than before.
