Hi O?k i'll try to answer your questions
1 re top link, this was originally supplied with a cat 1and a cat 2 ends and is reversible according to implement used. used a stepped pin at tractor end to fit cat 2 holes in top link mounting. You can buy replacement ends from a dealer although an aftermarket complete top link may be cheaper !!
2 Lower links yours are fitted with internal check chain assemblies to limit sideways movement of an implement when fitted. the extra pin is for use with external check chains if fitted, these attach to a 4 hole bracket mounted on the axle ( u cant see it on your tractor !!) you use either internal or external chain sets, they must not be used together !!!
3 Top link connection 2 holes, this assy is the top link torsion bar assy used for draft sensing (ground engaging implements Plows etc), top hole is for light implements snd bottom for heavy draft implements.the horizontal bars are the torsion sensing spring !!!
4 Draw bar position must be adjusted / removed to suit implements used. it usually has a long and a short hitch position.
do you have an operators manual ?? it explains all about these !!
I also sell genuine IH service manuals in PDF format, drop me a PM with your e mail address for further details if interested !!
