3-Point Hitch Lost 3 point pin

[rvtech]

I'm sure I can make 1 from TSC work. The original has a flat on the head that fits against a tang that keeps it from turning. it also has a washer on it that makes the length to the hole a tight fit with the retainer clip in. None of that will be the same. The time it will take me to make it like the original is better spent working on RV's for me. Pays much better.
I'm guessing the 2210 is the same. Just doesn't make any sense that it's not listed the same. If you look up parts for the 2305, the 3 point hitch category doesn't exist. The dealer was supposed to call Deere today then call me with the results. I didn't hear from him. I'm sure they're very busy. My dealer shows 0 in stock of the 2210 pin at all 5 stores.

I still don't know for sure what you are looking for. Is it the pin #LVU800702 that holds the top turnbuckle of the top link to the tractor? I find that on the Deere site, for a 2210.

I buy all my pins, etc. at TSC. I tried those key-ring-secured-pins (pain in the butt to get on and off) and ball-ring-secured ones on my Gravely. The best and easiest to use are the simple push-on kind. They do rarely get pushed off by brush, etc. but are so much easier to use than the key ring type and are more secure than the ball-ring types. Cotter pins are the most secure method to hold a pin, but are a pain to take off and generally can't be reused without a lot of trouble and are more likely to break if reused.

A really easy way to secure turn-buckles and would work for securing most pins would be to use tension straps, with eye hooks on each end. These are what I use on my turnbuckles. Threw away those tiny cotter pins soon as I saw them. The tension straps could also be used with the hooks through the eye holes in the ends of the pins. You could use one strap for pins at both ends of your top link.

The pin is a #M808002 for a 2210. Item #9 in the breakdown. I don't know if it is the same for a 2305. It is 5/8" diameter. A 5/8" bolt is working fine for now. I may just go buy 2 at TSC and maybe have a better set up after all.

You are looking at the wrong thing, as that number is not the pin, its the little mickymouse lock ring.

Dick,
Sorry. It is M808000 Item number 7

It looks like the same pin, as it has the flat spot showing in the picture. But I would just go to TSC and get a couple, it would be easy to grind a flat spot on theirs. They never use to have it and they never seems to wear out, so not sure why you would need it.

ok
Thanks
