The part no should have shown a LH lower arm - Cat 2 at axle end & Cat 1 at implement end. This is so you can see what I was saying I believed your tractor is equipped with. I also cannot find the replacement nuts & spacers you require, although BareCo show conversion bush kits, they aren't flanged - merely cylindrical, but a stout flat washer each side would fix that.

Bare Co - Linkage Conversion Bushes (Kit B351).

Yes, you could indeed replace the mounting pins to the trumpet housings. I recently learnt exactly how much work is involved to replace a broken Cat 1 pin in my MF40 loader. It is quite a big job. Having bought it only 2-3 months earlier I was a little unfamiliar with the larger back end, tyres & wheels, track width and generally a much heavier and bigger machine compared to the 135 I grew up driving. When carrying our slasher at a particular height, it could under certain conditions contact the rear tyres. This resulted in snapping off that RH mounting pin. I could not find a Cat1 pin with the large taper, so I machined down a Cat 2 pin and added a spacer under the nut. Worked well. I didn't mind that because that same side brake needed action - had a good pedal height but no friction whatsoever! A couple of seals and friction plates later that was fixed as well.


The 40 was bought with a spun no1 big-end bearing, I immediately put liner kits, bearings & seals, reground crank, reconditioned the cyl head etc. I put a seal kit in the injector pump and fixed quite a number of other engine-related small problems whilst it was apart. I was happy to discover a near-new clutch in addition to the new starter motor and radiator thanks to the PO. Now it runs like a brand new engine!

I still can't believe how many after-market parts are available, and how incredibly cheap parts prices are as well!
