Steve, the parts man tells me the 560's and older IH wide fronts had keyed links. Mine has splines, so he said its probably a Schwartz. He asked if it had what looked like a large disk shaped keeper over the tie rod end ball joints that had a large "flat balde screw driver" slot in it. I said yes, it does. He said, "It's a Schwartz". I asked about the IH hubs, he said that Schwartz used IH hubs. But he also said there were 3 different sized spindles available and he couldn't tell which size I needed until I either measured the spindle diameter (or gave hime the bearing #'s) and measured the length of the spindle shaft. Cost? About $130! Dumb and COSTLY mistake. I WILL get off and walk the ground from now on if I can't see it!
