rear light questions

Post by witty73 »

Alright, yours truly back with some dumb questions again. I scavenged this light off the rear of a 58 I was getting some parts off of for my 53 the other day.

Is it factory? It has a sealed beam bulb in it. It was on the right side fender kind of high up. I should have taken an "installed" picture so I could reference for placement on my tractor, if I decide to use it. Any info and or pictures if it is indeed a factory option would be great.

Secondly, I have seen the reproductions of these:

This one I took off the back of my 53, and am wondering if anybody makes a replacement bulb and red globe for them? I dont really need it, but I am in the process of rewiring the lights now, and if I can put it back to stock, I may try.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I’m guessing aftermarket on the plow light, especially as it is a sealed beam. One of my tractors had almost identical brackets on each fender, and If I remember corectly the factory light was installed by drilling a larger hole and mounting the light directly to the fender via the adjustable stud.
I would assume Dunlop tractor spares have the parts for the rear marker light, I have seen the complete units for sale from several vendors.
