if it had a rod knock and a bearing replaced with nothing else done, i'd guess a lot of the bearing material went thru the motor causing more damage. if its got a rod knock now, sooner or later it will come apart, quite possibly toasting the motor. your tractor has some issues, nothing that a little time and money wont fix. if you do the work yourself, figure throwing maybe 1000-1250 at the motor, including overhaul set, sleeves pistons ect, machine work, head work. gonna need to split it. while in there, i'd put a clutch in too. you will prolly throw maybe 1500 at it, if you need new tires, figure another 1200. you should have a good working tractor at the end of it all. other option is to sell yours as is, prolly get 500 for it, and buy another one in better shape, maybe 1500-2000 tractor.
