I have two original Farmall B front hubs that I need to clean out of the shop.
Years ago when I bought the Farmall B, it came with one bad wheel bearing. The fella knew it but drove it anyhow with the result that he wore the inside lip off the hub. It was mentioned here at the time that a welder could build up that lip and make this wheel useable again. It is fine in all other regards so I saved it.
Hub two was one I bought myself to replace hub one above. At the time I was, if you can possibly imagine it, somewhat less mechanically inclined than I am now. I got a little agressive with a bolt and broke it off flush in a cast hole. Then I proceeded to make a REAL mess with various versions of drills, EZ out, etc. Again, it was mentioned that a welder could probably fix that.
Question is, since these hubs are both otherwise very nice, and since they must be gone from here, should I try to find someone who wants to work on them or just send them to the scrap yard? Are they worth someones trouble or no?
