Identify this disc

Hi all
Have had this disc for a while now. I need some new bushings for the inside but i am not sure on the brand. It looks to be an IH but has some MF characteristics as well. Heres a few pics of mine and some of the exact same one I found for sale online

I'm gonna say it's a LUV. My dad had one like it. His had wooden grease boxes.

I agree. Probably a Love D-46. Made in Eau Claire, Michigan. You'll have to have the wooden axle bushings made, if that's what it has. Love went out of business in 1959.

Know of any good aftermarket places to get parts? I struggled for a while last night just attempting to find a parts manual but they seem to be a dime a dozen according to some people

I doubt you will find much for Love disc harrow parts on the shelf, even if you find a parts book. It was a shortline that apparently ended production about 65 years ago.

What parts are you looking for? Timmycornpicker gave you info on one place that makes wooden bearings. I expect you will need to give them a dimensioned sketch. You can likely find discs by measuring them and using dimensions to match up with ones you find listed. Here is what is in PartsASAP's Tillage offerings as an example.

We used to have one, but dad couldn't find new box bushings. He sold it for junk in 2003 over my protest..
