300u is DONE!!!, but some questions....

Hey guys, finally got the loader done on my 300u, will have pics today sometime. I have a few questions now.
What are some good replacement spark plugs available from autozone, advance, or carquest (no napa around here). It has the c169 gas engine.
Also, does this tractor have any camber on the front wheels? One side has almost 0 camber, the other probably has 5 degree or maybe a hair more. The loader has been hit and dad suggested the front end mught have been racked over and originally they both might have had some camber and the one gained more and the other straightened out because of the wreck. I will get some pics of this camber tonight as well, and if you guys think its obviously a problem, I will probably weld some gussets on the spindles to re-enforce them (no way am I gonna try bending them back =) ). Its not about looks or originality here, this is a work machine and having a front spindle collapse on me with a load would make for a horrible day.
Also, when I shift, the gears grind, but not bad at all. The manual showed the return adjustment screw on the clutch pedal, and the depressing stop is the foot rest, but my tractor has a adjustment screw for both directions and it has about an inch before it hits the foot pedal when it is stopped by the adjustment screw. Should I make the adjustment screw so that it hits the foot rest? Or do I have to adjust the "fingers" on the pressure plate? The lever drops into gear fairly easy, but u gotta take it slow, like the gears inside aren't fully stopping. I wouldnt worry about it, but I'll be switching alot of gears to make the track with the loader.
I wanna do a tuneuop today, but TSC doesnt carry the opoints for my tractor, I think there is a case dealer faily local, but i dunno. I do have new wires, distributor cap, rotor and soon plugs, so I will probably used some 2000 grit sandpaper to lightly clean and gap the points.
Thanks for all of your guys's help!! and constructive criticism.
You guys are awesome!!
Next you I'm going to the antique trator show to look around!! Anyone go to the show in findlay, OH?
