I just purchased a 1939 RC 70 serial # 224594.
The owners manual speaks of a special brake attachment that links the two brakes so they will brake together. Are these available anywhere? If someone has a picture of one would sure appreciate seeing it. Also, I read of a field option to install a throttle on the steering wheel column. Was this available for a 39 and are they available today? Also interested in finding lights for the tractor, and oliver amp meter and water temp gauges. The shop manual talks of 6 speed trans that were shipped with "stops" or "spacers" for gears 5 & 6 if the tractor was shipped with steel wheels and that these "stops" could be removed when converted to rubber tires. Is there a way to determine if the trans has 6 speeds without getting into the transmission?
Thanks.

Steve,
The optional brake you are talking about is fairly common. I can't get you a picture, but it is a "contraption" of cast pieces that connect the pedals with a rod that runs under the transmission. It also requires a brake pedal. If you check around, you shouldn't have a hard time locating one.
As far as the throttle, I'm not sure but I think they were put on the column around '46 or '47. Again by checking at bone yards, etc you should find one. By the way, the one on the tool box works great.
If the tractor runs, just shift to every hole. If it dosn't, put the lever in different holes and "rock". Everything is the same weather a 4 or six speed. They just left the gears out. Good luck, Larry
