Yes all the early implements were for 1 1/8 " and J D had the small pto on the A & B tractors. That small pto on the fords was not intended for any implements to be attached to it tho when it was designed and they had a extension that converted it to standard 1 3/8" and also when used with the V drawbar converted things to the standard that is still used today. It was only to be used with the PTO extension or belt pully. David Bradley made the first rear mount mower for that tractor and it did not use the 3 point lift arms but a rigid mounting modified from the mountings for a F20 Farmall and used a pully mounted on the pto, not a shaft (pully may have been same one used on the F20). Later Ferguson sold that David Bradley built and designed under the Ferguson name, then came the Dearborn and Ferguson mowers that mounted on the 3 point and was built by Detroit Harvester that modified a Detroit Harveter built Case mower built fot the VA series and converted it for the 3 point hitch and shaft drive and with the mower raising and lowering with the hitch they could not use the belt drive like previous mowers did that were rigid mount. The PTO on the orignal Fords was never intended to be used with any mounted implements, only pull type implements that the PTO extension that Ford sold extende the PTO shaft about 12" (would have to go out and measure mine to be exact) and that with the V extension-brace that set the hitch pin about 5" behind the cross drawbar gave the standard 14" between thr rear end of the PTO shaft and the hitch pin hole that is still the standard for all 540 RPM implements.
