Does anyone know off hand what size bolts hold the hood onto the front
of the tractor? They are the two bolts the hood pivots on to raise. I
had some service done this spring and the bolts have both fallen out in
the field somewhere. I'd guess they need to be axle bolts. I tried
3/4-10 and 3/4-16. The 3/4-10 starts just a bit but feels wrong. It
may be bunged threads but I couldn't see well enough to tell. Could
they be metric?
Should there be washers there as well?
Also, there's a nut inside the frame there built in aligned with the
mounting holes. Is that a different pitch or is it to lock the bolt in
place?
All help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
