Do I take your comment about the thrust to mean that there are no more thrust bearings available? I bought this tractor figuring it would be very expensive to restore/repair, although I think I underestimated just how expensive. I priced the parts I need to return this head to service with a resonable margin of safety and it worked out to very nearly $1200.00 CND (this doesn't include the machining and the parts that don't come from CaseIH). After that I did my sums and worked out that if I do a decent job of restoring it I'd be into it for around $15,000.00 . I'm now trying to decide if I'm just going to do the head to try and make it runnable for a while, take three years and restore the thing, or find an inconvenient corner in a barn and install it there until I win the lottery. I like it a lot but as usual I just don't know what to do with it. Sam
