Pto yokes

[redruff]

Had to do some modification on my Woods mower to hook up to a Ford 8n.

The yoke on the end of the shaft I used is a 12n. I bought a 12n snap coupler for the other side but here is my problem.

I can't find a 12n cross and bearings set. I stopped everywhere and EVERYONE had a 12R but not 12N. What gives and what is the difference.

I see I can order 12n online but why does no one stock them? It was weird

Do you have a 1-1/8" or 1-3/8" PTO shaft on the 8N? Original PTO shaft on the 9N,2N, and 8N was the smaller shaft dia. replacement shafts can be replaced with the larger one to fit more equipment.

I've got all that handled...I put an Overrun clutch on the 8n 1 1/8 pto that adapted it to 1 3/8. I have everything ready to go but the cross bearing kit.

I can order 12n online...I'm just being paranoid about the 12r thing...
is the only difference where the snap rings go? My 12N yoke does not have any grooves for snap rings.
