5711 Linkage ball?

[sih]

Managed to lose one of the rear linkage arm balls and its retainer plate/bolts, (tractor end of the lift arm).
What size ball would I need? and is the retaining plate easy to get hold of,of should I make one?
Sorry if its a gaumless question,but thought I`d ask those that know best!
Cheers.

Ball sizes are CAT 1 (7/8") or CAT 2 (1 1/8") - size of hole for pin. Measure the other one and get the same size from your local supplier.

Thanks Tomz,

Thats what I`ll do for sure,but I was wondering if the plate that kept it in can be bought off the shelf too? I`ll make one if need be.
All the best.
