Swinging drawbar clevis assembly

[Jeff Mead]

I had taken off of my 8N what I believe to be my swinging drawbar clevis assembly in order to clean it and the surrounding area before painting. When I put it back on I noticed the spring in the hole for the pin did not seem correct and I began to investigate. In the book the assembly is quite different. Mine has the point of attachment in the very back rather than in the middle. Is this just a different style? I do not have anything other than the bracket itself. I would like to make it complete. Where do I go to get parts or do I replace it with what is in the book? I can attach a picture (I think) later if needed.

Im guessing that you have the old kind that had a roller drawbar. It didnt have a drop hanger coming down from the PTO. It also was narrower, and the newer drawbars do not fit.

A photo will get you a better answer.

I believe the older 8N had the pin at rear of assembly, with a swinging drawbar ove lift drawbar. The clevis pin had two side pins that went in by pushing and then turning (like a radiator cap). This pin type had a tendancy to push up and be lost.
My middle pin mount on my Ford 600 (with similiar type spring pin insert) has been replaced by a a straight pin with a snap pin retainor at top. Is this possible on your pin?
