Maybe some brackets that bolt to the front frame to allow for mounting a tow bar.

Exterior door handle clips. longer version of the 56 trunck latch rod (see one of the SC's or STB's). TL motor test bushing end that can be made from even wood with a bushing pressed into the centre of it (pic on request).

AC pulley for front harmonic balancer.

Off topic long shot but i'll throw in the idea anyway:
An adapter plate for adapting some relatively modern 4 cylinder engine to TO20, TE20 and TO30 ferguson tractors. Diesel or gas.

This is all good stuff. I am setting up a fab, rebuild, and parts to help us all keep these on the road without paying overpriced from existing sources. I am currently building inventories and sourcing offerings. I will be launching soon.

V8 pulleys are available from Jack Nordstrom but if you came up with some sort of adapter or plate to bolt on a Ford or some other easily available pulley for an inline 8 there might be some demand.

Note that there is a simple lock plate for the bolt not shown in the pic in the above post.

I would be interested in the J-6065.
The hinge bolt idea you gave me works great at this stage but if I ever get this back together the J-6065 is preferable when making needed repairs.

agreed Stuart, while under body off conditions we have many options available but the device you and I are using is not practical for normal body on maintenance.

although not open for business yet, I have access to Ultramatic service items.

49-56 Ultramatic Overhaul, Major, and Master kits
Bands
Bushing kits
Pan Gaskets
My Master Kit includes six clutch plates, comp kits, do not, they are an additional $75

Also currently in possession torsion level worm bearings $7 NOT $25 from existing vendors, cap plug, worm seal, along with motor brushes. Fields and Armatures coming soon. Currently can rewind your existing and cut/dress the Commutator.

Much more items coming.

Busy day, set up as OEM for Engine, Transmission, and Treadle Vac parts distribution. Nice score on Bendix #73554 power brake tester.

Also will have a line on Manual Clutches, throw outs, pressure plates etc. I have various materials available to give a soft, or stiffer peddle, gentle or lock up and get it disc material. All clutches are tested on dynamic tester to verify grip and slip. more on clutches in the coming weeks.

Working on a catalog, very tedious. Heading out to Penn. later this week, and going to swing in on Randy Berger while in the Area.

SPecial tool to bench test a Torsion level motor.
THe steel tube is a starter housing from a 80's MoPar.
THe wood piece has four screws that allow the wood piece to bolt into the steel tube thrru the holes that were used to hold the MoPar field coils in place.

A bushing installed at center of round wood piece.

I can not remeber how i held it to the TL motor but i think i just used a big hose clamp around the tool and the TL motor at the seam.

NOTE that this was a just a Q&D gerry rig set up so i'm sure some very simple and easy improvement is in order. But this one worked as-is.

I use the remnants of an old T/L gear case to center the Armature for a bench test, but I see what you are getting at in your tool, not everyone has a spare gear box housings laying around.

You have given me an idea to run with.
