I could use some help. I got one of these today unfortunately it is missing the lift arms and the piece that the top link hooks up to. Does anyone have one of these that could provide me with good pictures, measurements and possibly templates?

Thank you

Vito

I'd like to see some pictures of the parts you have.  I only know of 4-5 Stratton lift setups they are very rare.   I have a lift as well, and have borrowed a set of factory arms from a buddy. My intention is to make up a set or two if I can get the time to make them. not sure what the cost would be yet.

If you guys know John Ittle, he has a restored Stratton on his 3B that is really clean. We had a picture of it in our 2007 calendar.
He's a great guy and I'm sure he would be happy to talk about it, I unfortunately don't have his contact info. The Willys Jeep Rally is held at his farm and he frequents the Spring Willys Reunion.

Vito, congrats on the find! John is on winter break in Texas right now, so might be hard to get ahold of. I think he might have two Stratton lifts.

I hope these help.  This forum has helped me out so many times, I'm glad to finally provide some information for someone else.  Let me know what specific measurements or pictures you would like to see.

Got lucky. A person came to buy a engine and I asked what he had any lifts and he said he had this that he got on a jeep he bought from a former dealer who used it as a demo unit. We traded for some parts he needed.

It's dirty. Needs to go to get sandblasted and some fresh paint. I haven't mastered picture posting on this site yet.
