hope you have fun. Ibeen to gettysburg so may times I could give the rtour by now hahaha. (I live not to far from there). Oddly my great great....dont know how many greats grandfather is there. Died in the battle.

Anyways back to problem. We call them a boss too. I think that just generically means a non removable bushing. Ours are a little worn on the IH 2500 but not that bad by far. Did you remove the zerks or where they long gone. Grease those points EVERY 50 hours all zerked boss's should be kept full pump to lithium pushes out sides of fitting. Remember its a tractor if the pins arent greasy its BAD news for it. The main reson the elongate is just that, run dry for far too long. That and constantly being overlaoded (the lower take alot of the force when loading)

Go to machin shop for them to be made. Get the strongest stuff they got. I think you want high carbon steel for this.

If you have a welder and a sawsall you can do it yourself pretty quick.

Get a piece of DOM tube the correct ID/OD and slide it all the way thru so it is held on to both sides. Weld it in straight, then saw it off flush with the inside. Don't forget to add the bolt hole first!

This way you don't need to mess with line bore or having them twist when welding.

Just a short cut that has worked in the past.

I had thought about something like that, what is DOM??

I was worried about the hardness of the pipe being used whether it would last as long as a factory bushing/boss

I guess it is called a boss correct, I am going to have to wait till next week to fix it , I had a gettysburg PA "vacation" planned before the boys go back to school. thansk pat

DOM is Die Over Madrel and is the process used for making the thicker wall tubing.

It is also what they used at the factory all those years ago right up to today. Cheap and easy to find. Any steel supplier will be able to get it for you if they don't have it on hand.

Typically, the set up you have is not greased. The pin is captured in place and held tight by the bolt. As long as the pin does not move in the boss, there is no wear. Coating the pin with neverseaze is a good idea.

On my side of the pond we call that piece that has come off the pin boss,to repair that I would take the pin and the old boss to the machine shop and have them make me two bosses,check to see that the inside one is the same width,if not measure it and get the other made to suit,you will only need one hole for the keeper bolt for the pin,you need to tell the machine shop that you will be welding the bosses in and he will leave the right clearance to allow for shrinkage,the pin it self should not turn in the boss,it turns in the bush which will be inside the arm,the end of the pin in the picture looks ok but the pivot area cannot be seen,check the pin for play in the arm when you have the bucket off,replace the bushes if they are worn and the pin if needed,make sure that the grease is getting through,if you are welding in the new bosses yourself,put the two into thier respective holes and put the pin through both to keep them in line,tack the bosses in making sure the pin stays free and then weld them up,bucket on,grease pins,job done.

I don't see whee you really have a problem. Habe the old hole line bored and a sleeve installed to bring it back to standard bore and install new bushing and pin. it is a lot ceaper than replacing the mount and boom.
