Building a blade for a Super A

Posted by marvin on November 19, 2002 at 11:48:40 from (134.134.136.4):

Well I am finally at the point of going out to buy material to build a blade for the Super A. I am planning on building one to look like the one that IH built for them. The only modification is to put some brace from the pivot point back to the rear drive housings to limit the amount of force transferred to the clutch housing.
My questions are:
1)How thick is the plate steel and the strapping that is used for the bracing and the pivot arm? I am thinking it is half inch.
2)How thick is the angle iron used to mount to the blade itself?
3) What grade of steel is the pivot shaft? Does that need to be grade 5 or 8?
Thanks for your responses.
Marvin
