Worked the entire day after being told that there was an IH rebuild kit in boxes sitting on the hitch of the tractor, dug the tractor out of the shed and found another set of pistons that appear unusable due to rust. I think these are the supposedly new ones. No rebuild kit. Literally sifting through 6" of dried manure and other trash on the floor yielded 7 out of the 8 pushrods and the round side engine covers.

Sorry to whine but I'm pretty low on this whole deal at the moment.
