Hello, I just bought my first tractor. Until now, I have just borrowed my uncle's JD or a neighbor's NH. My IH474 has a category 2 3-pt and when I bought it it was missing the top pin and link. So off to Tractor Supply I go and get the cat2 top link, top pin and lynch pin. I get home and where the top link mounts to the tractor I have a problem that I just don't understand. When looking at the pic there are two mounting points (upper and lower). The holes on the right side fit the cat2 pin perfectly. The holes on the left side would only accept something the size of a cat1 pin. In other words, the cat2 pin will slide in from the right but it's too big to go through the hole on the left to secure the link. What gives?
I was in a pinch so I took a concrete stake, cut it off and put my pins in it to 'make' a top link pin.
Thank you for any wisdom.
