I have a 1950 A-C Model B that I just got started for the first time in 9 months. Have been going over it and replacing brake linings, changed from 6 volt to 12 volt system, rewired, new muffler, changed ammeter to voltmeter, repainted entire tractor (painted myself; hope I never have to paint for a living; terrible job, but looks better than no paint.); replaced radiator and all hoses, replaced all ignition parts, installed 3-point hitch, etc.After getting it back together, I have found that the spindle pin bushings need replacing as well as a couple of other repairs on the front end. Questions: 1. How hard are the spindle pin bushings to replace? I don't have the correct pullers to pull the front end apart. 2. How hard are the front grease seals to replace? Both front wheel bearings are leaking grease around the seals. 3. The pivot pin for the front axle has come unwelded. How vital is it to reweld the head of the pin to the mounting bracket? Thanks for any input. PS: That A-C 4-cylinder sure sounds good after 9 months of silence.
