Choke and throttle Rod was created by Basdas

Hello name is Bret have a 1958 7U42585. Working on the pony motor. I am looking for the choke rod first of all and a throttle rod that goes through the dashboard. On my tractor you start the pony motor from the tractor seat. Any leads or junkyards there any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks again Brett

Hello and welcome! Those are going to be tough to find, not many in seat starters are around, may have to make them from scratch. The knobs are still available.

It was around late 57 on up, it was an option when ordering a tractor.

Look to the 955 (12Axxxx) Traxcavator for parts. That's the origin of in seat starting for the D315 engine.
