Disc harrow ID help

[J L]

My father-in-law bought this in the early 80s. He’s passed on and I’ve no certainty of what brand and model this is. I’m thinking Ford or New Holland.
I’m needing some bearings for it.
Thanks

Possibly Ford or Long Agribusiness, by chance did your FIL work as a lineman or for a utility company?

Yes, he did. Why do you ask? The ground rod?

LOL, there are several brackets that have been added to that harrow that are unique and only used on power lines, but all of us lineman seem to find ways to use those items at home, the anchor with the helix end cutoff was also a dead giveaway.

You should be able to disassemble and find a manufacturer and part number on the bearings, races and seals.

Ok. Thx
I was hoping I could get an ID and expedite the process. It may not be possible.

I don't know where you are located but Agri-Supply pretty much has the largest supply of disc parts, bearings, spacers, blades, etc, so if you can't find a readable # on the bearings just go to your local NAPA store and they should be able to MIC it and get the size to cross reference.

Great
That’s very helpful.

I've worked a lot of storms in Louisiana, worked for SLEMCO, Lafayette Utilities System and one of the most satisfying trips was rebuilding the electric system in the town of Vinton in 2020 after a hurricane wiped it out, good times, good memories, and made a lot of good friends, I'm retired now after 35 years myself.
