3 pt. linkage question

[Mikemahindrah]

I am in need of a replacement turn buckle for the 3 pt. hitch on my Mahindra Max 25 tractor. Mine fell off at some point. The dealer will only sell me the entire check chain and thats $100.
Any help/advice/input is appreciated.
Thanks
Mike

If you weld it would be an easy make. Ed

Huh, good point. Didnt think of that.
Thanks!

Ed,
So today I got looking at the 3 pt. in regards to welding. Any suggestions on what I could use to make up the difference in length for the missing turnbuckle?

I remember seeing these kinds of parts- including that turnbuckle- at my local Wilco farm supply store. They were right next to the pins and other tractor hardware they sell. I cant say for sure if it would be an exact fit but probably worth a look. I would imagine TSC or other farm stores in your area may have something you can use or make work.

I have been checking the local TSC on and off for about 6 months....no luck. I'm not familiar with Wilco, they arent around here. I've also checked other tractor supply stores, no luck there either.
