It would be easier to tell you what I did not do. The radiator only needed flushed and the tranny/clutch had been recently replaced. The mains looked good at purchase. All else was by me. From front to back: Replaced Front Tires Front Wheel Bearings Front Spindle Rebuild Front Pivot Rebuild Steering Linkage Replaced Power Steering Linkage Repaired and Adjusted Engine Redone from Top to Bottom(9.2:1 Compression) Clutch Cleaned, Checked, Adjusted Belly Cleaned Hydraulic Pump and Control Valve Rebuilt PTO Seal, PTO Shifter Seal Shifter Boots, Shifter Knobs, and Steering Wheel Differential Carrier Bearings Brakes Rear Axle Seals Repaired and Repainted Body (hired out) Replaced Seat Pan and Cushions Replaced Guages Rebuilt Carb Refinished Manifold w/Ceramic Header Coat Replaced Generator w/Reverse Rotation Alternator Steering Gear Cleaned and Relubed Gear Lube Replaced To Do: Retap Hitch Box Bolt Holes, Replace Bolts Clean, Paint, and Replace Ends on Lift Arms Clean Paint Hitch Box Clean and Paint Rear Wheel Weights Replace Slide Locks on the PAVT Rewire Reassemble Don't hold me to this list. I may have missed something...
Sure looks alot different from when I got it. A lot of folks ask me if I intend to sell, but currently I have entirely too much in it. The local salver is parting out tractors in much better condition than what I started with. Shortly after buying it, the local wrecking yard owner asked me what I was gonna do with it and when I told him he just rolled his eyes and told me he would be by to pick it up when I was done with it. The irritation from that comment has been my spur to get this project done. I am going to drive it out and tell him that I am done with it. Thanks for the interest Aaron
