L783 Steering Control Levers?

[SkyyBull]

Hello,
I have a '93 L783 which I am trying to rebuild the steering controls levers and wanted to see if anyone had a picture they could share of the correct control lever linkages. I have all of the manuals but some of the bushings don't match up correctly. There is a bushing in the back of part #6 but I don't see it listed and I have the #7 and #9 bushings and I don't think it's either of those are correct but maybe the #9 would fit but not the #7 and I am trying to see if the #7 goes between the #6 part and the #8 part? Thanks!

Hello
have the same machine and the same issues, number seven is a spacer that goes inside the bushing that is installed in number 6
I haven't found a source for the bushing in number 6 my bolt going thru that spacer was worn to the shape of a football and the spacer was paper thin. I also replaced number 9 even though it wasn't that bad still have some play in the left side servo cylinder right side is better as the bushing in the servo is better condition, was thinking about trying to find a poly shock absorber eye bushing of similar dimensions to replace it with. good luck with your repairs

I re-did the bushings on my L785 this spring. I used poly shock bushings on dang near every one of them. I do have a lathe, so I put them on a bolt as a mandrel and trimmed them down to fit. Worked great, and a heck of a lot cheaper than what they wanted for new bushings from New Holland!

Thanks for the suggestion and was planning on doing something similar this winter when I take it apart.
