And sometimes bolt holes from the factory are no in the correct location . Back when the new rage was the Hay Basket i had a local dealer that he would call when he needed extra help or got as he called them ODD BALL meaning I H tractors in for repair or traded in . He had one full time mechanic on the ag side one and a half on the lawn and garden side one guy that floated and drove truck . I was up working on a trade in 1066installing a new clutch and T/A and anything else i could find before it got set out ft. when a semi pulled in with a half a full load of new hay baskets and he wanted me to help with putting them jigsaw puzzles together out behind the shop myself and the one guy that floated started and it did not take long to find out that hey these bolt hols don't even come close to lining up along with some of the welded pieces .He had received 20 hay baskets and the other guy and i had them all layed out trying to see if we were the ones not putting the Puzzle together correctly . I was to the point of frustration that i was about ready to put the new MIG welder to work and weld them together . They called in the factory Rep and he was there the next day looking them over tryen to figure out why we could get one side to fit but not the other side . We ended up clamping and HAND drilling all the bolt holes on all of them on one side Cutting off and rewelding a couple brackets instead of what they claimed as two hours to assemble turned into two a day .
