Yes those lug bolts are available JM, I put a full new set on my 5U cylinder mounting brackets that use the same holes. Can't answer your other questions though...
I didn’t post a tractor serial or one for the trunnions, correct. Tractor serial could range from 5U1600 to 16,xxx , or even 4U147x. I haven’t decided yet. No numbers on any of the toolbar goodies that I am aware of, as of now, they will stay in the corner until it’s time.
All I can say is, D2 tool bar group, the one that uses trunnion balls, not the swing swivel bracket.
Just trying to gather up a few pieces to make life easier.
Photos from my parts book: The “long” strips look to be for a D4 track frame for whatever it’s worth.
Thanks fellas. JM

3F6697 Bolts are still available, it’s be awhile, but I think Cat wanted $15 each..... I got a set from NorCan Parts and Equipment in Spokane, Wa. They were aftermarket, cost was somewhere in the $7 range when I brought them. They had to order them, as they don’t keep them in stock. My D4 7U had the threaded holes in the frame, still had the cork in the holes...maybe early D2’s were just a hole ??? Then the strip w/ nut, would make sense on the backside of the frame. Would be easy enough to make the strip w/nut
I see where you’re going with the 3/4 bolt and the cone washer idea.....thought of going that way, til I found the bolts at Norcan.
My two cents

Do you have a source for 3/4" hardened cone washers. I have a couple but never could find a part number or source.

"i reject your reality and substitute my own" - adam savage. i suspect my final words maybe "well shit, that didnt work"
instead of perfection some times we just have to accept practicality
try any good bolt supplier they should be able to source something. or get some turned up out of high carbon steel and get them heat treated
