Can I purchase a sleeve that slides over the small shaft and make it the larger size so I can use a belt pulley off a Ford 3000? If so, where can I purchase. Thanks [Reply]   [No Email]

No wobbly adaptors and looks like a factory pto. Dad drove a baler with it for years.   [Reply]  [No Email]

The better ones are machined and are epinned in place. i use one on my TO-30 but I have a new 1 3/8" shaft waiting in the wings to replace the small shaft with.   [Reply]  [No Email]

The wife was working the fergy when the adapter broke. The front 1/2 of the PTO drive shft came loose and went sailing past her head and missed her by maybe a foot at best. No more adapters for me. Another reason that new adapters are hard to find. The rumor of pending lawsuits might be believable.   [Reply]  [No Email]

You probably can find them via search engine. They have a mail order business as well as a few stores.   [Reply]  [No Email]

VERY ADVISAEABLE for Bushhogging. Maybe find such a clutch to fit the 1-1/8 tractor shaft but ccepts a 1-3/8 implement drive shaft.   [Reply]  [No Email]

To the best of my knowledge there hasn't been many like that. I thought it was a rather nice way to make it. Of course that was maybe 6 months ago.   [Reply]  [No Email]
