How did the chains for the linch pin and the top link pin originally fasten to the top link rocker? I see there are holes in the sides so I assumed that there was a cotter pin on the end of the chain that went into the holes but I don't know for sure. I know on the 9N the piece stuck out with the hole and the chain loop went directly thru the hole. I have the original chains and linch pin for the hinged pin so I know how it goes but not the top link rocker. I am also going to have to bore out the hole in the rocker for the top link pin and bush it back to size as mine is egg shaped from all the years of plowing I suppose. After that I have to bush the lift arm knuckles. I am trying to keep as many original Ferguson parts on it as I can is why I am trying to bush them instead of buying new ones.

You are correct , they were held by cotter pins. New top link rockers are available and very good quality.. What I tend to do with worn fittings is to mig weld the hole closed completely and then redrill back to standard.....Saves any chance of bushings working loose.

I can't remember off the top of my head, but there may have been a small hole for a cotter pin either in the pivot yoke....or somewhere close. I can check on out F40 in a couple days if you dont get an answer on here- that one is all orig.

The only reason I was trying to save this rocker was because it has the HF and the part number on it still. I have a mig welder so I suppose I could weld the holes up and then redrill them.

The pins were held on with cotter pins to the Rocker John(UK)
