Tie rod clamp

I need a tie rod clamp for my 5000. Anybody got one off a
salvage tractor I can buy? Local New Holland dealer can't get
one, and shipping is WAY out of bounds to order one.
 
Do you mean part number 81816724, which the parts drawings call a "Connecting Rod Clamp" on the manual steering drawing and a "Sleeve Clamp" on the power steering drawing? if so, it looks like they are no longer available new from New Holland, but it looks like several places have them available as after market items for around $7.00 apiece. they are fairly small clamps, so why do you think shipping would be expensive?
 
A quick check of shipping charges at several web sites shows that it would be about $19.00 or $20.00 to buy one and have it shipped to you. The shipping price wouldn't go up if you bought 2 to replace both of the original ones, so the total for two would be around $27.00 including shipping. A look at messicks shows that if they were still available new from a New Holland dealer they would be around $17.00 a piece anyway, so you would be paying about $2.00 more to buy one of the aftermarket clamps including shipping, and if you bought two you would be saving around $7.00.
 
Each place I've checked out the part either costs $20-30 free
shipping or $7 and $12 shipping. I may just be too tight, but all
I need is a little hunk of steel...
 
If there's an auto wrecking yard nearby you may be able to find on off of a light truck or older car that will fit.
 
As I said, if your local New Holland dealer did still have it available, their price would be $17.00, or maybe more since that was the price back whenever it was that they stopped selling them.
 
Well, I just got it together with a cheaper...and likely only temporary fix. Used a ubolt and a cut the head off a half inch bolt and squeezed her down right and it held for 30 min of bush hogging. I'll go to a salvage yard sometime and get the real thing, but this'll work for now.
