I'm looking for a wood pitman for my 93-14 (or was it 14-93...) Ford mower. This is just like a 501 mower, but the yoke & therefore the pitman is longer, allowing for a bigger tractor to pull it.

The pitman stick is 46.5 inches long. I'm having trouble finding anything that long.

My part of the world, hard to find any straight-grained hard wood as well. So hard to make my own.

Thanks all.

TSC web site & VB web site were _not_ freindly to me today, could not find anything helpful. & I generally do well looking there.

In my region, the 501 shoreter stick is the common one. I've not seen many of the longer models like I have; so the local fleet & farm stores have the shorter ones stocked, but not the longer one.

Anyhow figured the same for my NH dealer, but checked there this morning, & he said he had _one_ pitman stick in stock. It happened to be the long one I needed. Said the last one he sold was in 2004. I said the short ones are more common, bet you just sold out of those. He looked & last one of those he sold was 2006.

So, I proceeded to bust the frame bracket holding the right lower 3pt pin on the mower this afternoon. Welding cast, oh fun that will be.....

Check with Balster's Implement - Link They have a 46 7/16" pitman wood listed for a Ford 14-92 mower for $14.95. I haven't bought anything from them yet, but I saw a reference to their website on some other postings here. If you want to make your own, try cutting down a wheelbarrow handle if you can find them for sale at the hardware store or a swapmeet.

Try Sickle Service. I recently purchased pitman arm for New Idea 251 mower. Needed a little modification but is working.
