Lunette and lunette casting needed for willy's MBT trailer

; somewhere down the line someone [Bubba], had ground the top of the casting bracket flat -removed the lunette and added a 'heitz 57' civi tongue-

Need the parts to convert it back to lunnette....

Are any other trailers similer- Anyone familier with the MBT's ?

The Bantam T3 and later M100 lunette and casting will work. The MBT & T3 had the smaller necked down lunette ring diameter (thickness) and a three hole pivot casting so you had three leg positions (full down, half down & full up). The M100 has a ring diameter that is the same as the shaft diameter and only two holes in pivot casting for full up or full down leg. The M416 casting will not work because the tariler frame is wider and the "V" of the drawbar is not the same angle as the MBT/T3/M100.
