1PWRFULH - Glad you found my pix helpful. I found nothing overly difficult replacing the bushings. Just take normal precautions when disassembling - a couple of the parts are kinda heavy.

Hardest task was getting the sector gear off the top of the pivot shaft. It's on a tapered spline and was stuck on pretty good. Required some serious pounding with a 4# hammer on the top of the pivot shaft (with a scrap of copper bus bar protecting the threads) before it popped free.

I found the bolster bushings were easily driven out and replaced. Had a bit of a problem getting a new seal at the bottom of the gearbox started - it's deep in the "crotch" of the bolster casting, but a homemade tool cut from a broom handle quickly solved that.

Suggest this before you tear yours down: Jack the tractor under the clutch housing so the front wheels are hanging free. Remove the grille and the steering gearbox cover. You can then easily check for slop in the worm bearings, worm gear set, pivot shaft, etc. Figure if you have the right tools and a bit of luck you can do the job start to finish in a long 1/2 day.

Good luck!
