Ryan,

You need to mic the Journals on the crank, in order to do this the rod caps must be removed.

I have a set of mics and can measure the Journals for you if you want me to.

If you are lucky you may be able to get a set of undersized bearings for it, depending on what the measurments are.

When re-assembling it put STP on the bearings.

My dad always removed the coil wire and turned the engine over until we got a reading on the oil pressure gauge before trying to start it.

Putting in a set of undersized bearings may hold up for some time, it all depends on what you plan to do with the tractor.

If you still plan to use this tractor in pulls you might really want to consider getting the crank re-ground.
