I need a drag link for my 830. I think it is part number A34894. It is 13/16" in diameter and maybe 14 or 16 inches long. I've got a couple that are 3/4" diameter but can't get the clamps to tighten down enough so the link does not slip back and forth a bit.
The dealer has the part...for $200. I'm wondering if anybody knows of a later model or generic part that will fit. Basically, it's just an ordinary simple drag link with a 13/16" diameter. I can cut to length if need be and could even grind the bolt detents in. What I really don't want to do is dump $200 into so basic a part.
Any idea how to solve this problem? Anybody know how to make a 3/4" link fit with shims (tried some aluminum from a beer can and that didn't work so good...too slippery or somthing).
