Thank you and others who responded as well. This is what I thought
would be the logical way to do things, but not having looked at a B
parts catalog, and not being knowledgeable about it, I wondered if while
an A parts catalog different numbers and pictures for a throttle hand
lever for and A and an AR, that a B parts catalog might use the same
part and list it for the various B tractors. Normally you wouldn't be
trying to cross-reference part numbers between an A and a B.
The question came up since I am looking for a throttle hand lever for
the unstyled AR. It apparently is different from the one for the A.
It appears to be longer, I don't know if it fits the same size
shaft. The one on the tractor has been broken in the past and someone
welded a replacement complete with rubber grip, on the end of the
original one.
I am waiting to hear from Melanie Sharp to see if they have one. These
tractors weren't very plentiful around here so I will be surprized if
they have one, but my preference is to buy local if possible. Now if
anyone has one of these laying around gathering dust...
