So, I am rebuilding the pump/cylinder on my '48 8N and ran across a few things that I don't fully understand. Take a look at the associated pictures…

1. Am I correct in thinking the control arm should be STRAIGHT?

2. The draft control pin is broken (probably explains #1) and the Steiner girl says its a .490" dia pin, but I can only find 1/2" and 5/16". Which one is correct?

3. The pump control valve had a "button plug" on the end of the intake valve. However, mine had been replaced with a regular washer. Is this acceptable? If not, where can I find one? It's #27 in the pic.

Thanks!!

Before you go and grind down a drill bit make sure to confirm that its the proper diameter

I rebuilt my hydraulics last winter and just went to the store and bought a 5/16 bit, cut it down and when i went to install it i found out that the hole was larger than 5/16

i forget what size bit i ended up using from my drill index to fix the issue but still wasted like $5 on a bit for nothing
