Length of pin and chain for Big ten rear lift

[fast_orange 0]

I need to know the length of the pin and chain for the rear lift. Want to hook a brinly mold board plow up. Thanks Jared

Here is a sketch I had for the lift pin. Don't have the chain info at hand right now. Will have to go over to the farm and measure one.

Thank you, can you give me an idea of the length of the shackles for the chain too. I'm thinking chain and shackle length probably aren't to critical for the plow but could be if I get other attachments. Jared

Maybe this helps, now that you know the length of the rod you should be able to figure out the approximate length of the chain and shackle.

Sounds like you realize that in operation the chain should be limp, so except for lifting height when transporting the length doesn't affect operation. Mine is a bit longer than the picture shows I think. I thought it easier to be drag a link in the dirt at times than be one link short. Good luck!

Yes that does, Don you had posted that image before when I was building my sleeve hitch. I even looked at it last night before starting this thread It didn't click to go back to it after the pin size was shown to me. Thankyou Jared

There's one for sale on ebay. The price is ridiculous, but here it is: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=002&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=120112520790&rd=1&rd=1
