I need the two tapered nuts that hold the lower struts to the mounting brackets. I looked them up in the old parts manual I just got. They are part number 667 888 M1. A while back the AGCO dealer also looked them up and said they are obsolete. I am thinking that possibly lug nuts from a medium duty truck might work if I can find some that are 3/4 fine thread. So far no luck finding anything like that. I did hook it up to my 8N using regular 3/4 nuts with machine washers stacked under them only to learn that my hydraulic system is shot and could not lift the cutter bar so I unhooked it and borrowed my brother's tractor and mower.
That worthless 8N is about to become an organ (engine & tires) donor to my other 8N.
