Hi Dave,
If it was mine, I'd plastigauge it. If it was in spec., which it probably will be by the sound of it, and doesn't show any taper. I would leave it as it is. If you can't catch your fingernail on it, then I wouldn't worry about it.

I have a 560gas that has a rough journal in it. Overhauled it last year. Did'nt have the time to pull the crank and grind it. I needed it bad. Does it bother me? No. I know that bearings are replacable parts. Maybe down the road when I have more time or I have it apart for the clutch I might think about taking it out and turning it. Bottom line is what do you want to do with your tractor?
