Said I"d never mess with it but thinking about removing the expanded metal and installing a grille..rest of sheet metal is good..Not going to pay the outrageous prices I see on a couple of sites..Advice, sources? I want a good straight one but new is not a requirement. Thanks

Tom, give this guy a call. He's always parting out Ns.I know he's in KY and your in MS, don't know if he'll ship or not.

If not shoot me an email. I need to run up there (hour away) and rummage for parts. I could pick it up and ship if needed.

The 2N grill has 3 pins on the top, one in the middle and one on each side. The 8N has a spring loaded pin on each side. The 2N grill bolts to the bottom, the 8N has tabs on the bottom. The 2N grill has 2 holes on top in the middle for a "Ferguson System" emblem, the 8n does not. Hope the picture helps some.

You can also have a 2N on a 9N, or a 9N on a 2N.

We are supposed to pay State Tax on all electronic trading, now. PA Income Tax Form has special police forces.

I always PA Sales Tax to vendors for non-farm transactions. Therefore, I do not have to collect tax. I BUY LOCAL.

Thanks for the offer Jeff--Was able to locate one.Tracy Brown has it and lives in MS close to where one of our small mfg plants is located --mailed his money order yesterday and he will be dropping the grille off at our plant in Tupelo, MS--From there the Grille will come to me on our company truck to Hazlehurst, MS..Isn"t it amazing how things come together sometimes..Thanks again..

If you try hard, you can put a Jubilee/600 grill on an 8N upside down and
still make it look decent. LOL
