Got my 850 a few years back, completely set up as a mower...72" bellymower, turf tires, etc. No 3 pt hitch arms. I later bought from a complete hitch system with lift arms, draft arms, sway chains, etc, said to be from an 850...it all nbolted right up.. Now my problem, just this spring one of the turnbuckles on the sway chain broke. It's 4 3/8" long and threaded for 14mm RH/LH. My tractor serial number reveals a parts schematic with all parts (chain links, clevis, turnbuckle, etc) easily identified and confirmed EXCEPT that JD part number CH13439 provides for a turnbuckle that is 7 3/8" instead of the 4 3/8" required. Numerous inquiries to JD have proved unsuccessful. Suggestions,comments?

Are you measuring just the body of the turnbuckle to get the 4 3/8th inches? ....

I was thinking there might be some cross over between models. My 4100's turnbuckle body measurement is 3 3/8, if that helps. ....
