Banshee, I do not know if I ever had it, and yes if I did it is quite possible it was cannibalised for something else, Peasgood1 thanks for the pick but do not think this is it, I am given to understand it is something more akin to the pick below, Rick

Sorry Rick, not too sure what the a-frame for your winch would look like as a normal tractor a-frame is a bit different to the thing you're describing and isn't specific to rear winches

I did find a listing for an early Ferguson one though that sold last year

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ferguson-W...p2047675.l2557

... and these pics of one of the early Ferguson ones in situ...

and just for fun! Bet he's glad for the spade lugs

By the way Peasgood1, what tractor do you have?

Love my old girl, never let me down yet

I was lucky to get such a good one, maybe one day I'll get her fully restored!

Ohhhhh fergies

Thanks for the pics, unfortunately I cannot see the "A" frame clearly, but it does look different to my illustration, I have located a copy of the owners operating instructions but cannot access it till Tuesday, hopefully I will be a little wiser then, on the good side I have had an offer of more than I expected and with the knowledge that the A frame is missing, so will wait and see when the auction ends, question for Ebayers, I have had many questions asked on Ebay re this listing and have answered them via Ebay but my listing still says no questions? so to stop having to answer the same question time and again what do I need to do to to get them shown? I am amassed at the interest in this item, Rick

When you are replying to a question, there is a check box at the bottom, just under the reply box, which gives you the option to display the question and answer on the listing... I don't think you can do it to ones you have already replied to though.

AlexD333 · 05-04-2014, 20:09

When you are responding to the questions there is usually a "show on ad" or show all button, something like that.

Lazy ferret and Alex, thanks for that not noticed it but will check next time, regards Rick

jims-terrano · 05-04-2014, 20:57

Could you amend the description with the question and answer too?

Hi Rick, I'm sure I've seen listings with a sub heading along the lines of listing description amended. So in theory you could say that you been asked what colour is it and the answer is grey. I've never sold anything through Ebay so wouldn't have a clue.

Hope that's a bit clearer Rick

Peasgood1 · 05-04-2014, 21:12

The picture I posted is the top link/"A" frame that belongs with that winch. The pic Rick posted appears to be part of a bent gazebo frame. Harry Ferguson is probably turning in his grave!

I'm a farmer Barrbeast, I've got lots of tractors. There is an old grey Fergie, a couple of 35's, IH 434's, 276, then up to the 574, 684. After that we have a Same 90, did have another but it had a bit of a mishap.
There's a big 6 cylinder Same here somewhere too.
My daily steed is the MF35. Did about 50 acres with the Vicon this week.
