1936 BR

[treeman53]

Where could I possibly find a clutch operating rod for a BR? Part number is 752R, and is different for regular B.
It is the adjustable rod from clutch lever to belt pulley brake...

I think you left a letter off of the part number, looks like it's B752R, Key #8D.

Sorry, I don't have a source for you, but if you can't find one it wouldn't take much to fab one up that would be hard to distinguish from the original.

If you can find one great, If not, no big deal. Ones for other models are readily available. Determine length, cut it, lengthen or shorten it as needed, point ends lay it in a angle iron to hold it straight, Tack weld it, then remove it from angle iron and weld it all way round, grind it round, sand it, prime it and paint it and no one will ever know the difference or can tell it was welded. If your not a welder anyone with one should be able to do this or they should own a welder. DW

Would the rod from a standard B be a good candidate to modify?

(quoted from post at 09:37:15 07/21/23) Would the rod from a standard B be a good candidate to modify?

Personally, I'd grab a rod of the appropriate size, forge an end to shape and drill it for the pin and thread the other side.

A little touchup of the ''eyelet end'' with a grinder and it would look authentic.

John Bohn at rusty acres tractor parts might have one. They only want you to email them. They have a good web site.

I don't know if you would even have to modify.
