killroy 35 #6 Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) What model tractor do you have? I have that same handle on my 73 16hp no name and it is too low for me making it hard to operate. Mine has a big white ball on it. Don't remember where I got it from but the threads are common on lots of knobs Edited December 10, 2021 by killroy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gregor 4,846 #9 Posted December 11, 2021 McMaster Carr has unthreaded knobs. Order the size knob you want, and tap the thread you need. https://www.mcmaster.com/knobs/unthreaded-hole-ball-knobs/ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
