help identifying old harrow - continued

In afterthought, and addition to my previous post:
On the outside of the wheel is clearly marked 455 169-R9 and the inside of the wheel is marked 15 1/2 KB 710 ElectoFuse Made in USA. If this helps in identifying the harrow, please let me know and thank you in advance.

Where or what is your previous post? Cannot find it to understand what you are looking for.

The part number follows IH protocols (usually 6 digits followed by "R_" If it is an IH, you will usually find the stylized "I" in the middle of the "H" in a casting, or if really old, somewhere early '30's or so, with a "C" wrapped around the IH.

Hope that helps.

Part number 455 169 R92 is WHEEL, disc (4-BOLT) (15") and fits 37 Wheel-Controlled Disk Harrow, built from 1955 in various widths from 8' 6" to 14'. I have a parts catalog, with exploded diagrams for these harrows. E-mail is open.

help identifying model number of 2 gang, 20 disks harrow

I have an old harrow and have no idea of the model. All twenty disks on the 2 gang seem to be in good shape. There are five disks on each of the short axles. I think the harrow is what is referred to as an off-set harrow. All ten disks on the front section throw the dirt in one direction and all the disks on the back section throw the dirt in the opposite direction. The hydrolic cylinder is missing, but appears to serve the purpose of lifting the disks onto the tires for transport. The linkage arms that serve to adjust the angle of cut are all missing. It would be perfect if I could find another old harrow of the same model, that I could purchase to actually see what parts I am missing and how the harrow is to be adjusted. I could also use that harrow's parts to replace my missing parts. It really would not matter if the disks and axles were worn out because mine seem to be in good shape. It would be a tremendous help if I just knew what make and model harrow I have. The reason I am calling it an International Harvester is because a man at a tractor dealership told me he recognized the numbers on the wheels were International Harvester numbers, but there is no guarantee that the wheels on my harrow are the original ones. It is possible that the harrow was even manufactured by another company. The pictures are shown with the harrow broken in two, but can be reassembled using an approximate 1 1/8 inch pin which is also missing. I have rebuilt the wheels, bearings, and tires. the wheels were originally orange, as you see I have painted them red.
