Hello-
I am brand new on the forum, and new to tractors too. I have a question, but first a little background...
A couple weeks ago my friend brought his dad's old Farmall 140 over to my house, along with a bushhog. I used it (first time ever on a tractor!) to clear about an acre of 4 foot high pigweed out of a pasture that has been neglected. About halfway through the job I fell in love with that tractor, and my wife did too... she realized all the things I could do with it! :) At some point, I want to buy one of my own.
Anyway, my friend is going to keep the tractor at my place for a while and said I can use it to do stuff. He has a bunch of implements that work with the fast hitch (bushhog, disk, blade, etc), but one thing that he doesn't have is a post hole digger. I was thinking about picking one up, which I could use now and also keep for when I get a tractor of my own. My question is..... will a post hole digger work on this tractor (Farmall 140 with fast hitch)? I read about a rare kind of PHD that they made for these tractors that costs some ridiculous amount, but I'm not really interested in that... I want something that I can use to put a fence in with. New, old, common, rare... it doesn't matter... I just need it to dig holes and not mess up the tractor. Can you all give me some pointers on what to look for in a post hole digger? Do they still make them that would work on this tractor?

The discussion started out with the following post: "I have an aluminum steering gear housing with a bolt broken off in it. The bolt is about a 3/8" x 1 1/2" bolt. I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
