Mike, The spacer you are talking about was used to raise the front end of tractor to level up and give more clearance. The bolt in the bottom of bolster shaft is used to hold lower spindles on plus a place to mount wheel scrapers. Depending if this tractor had the spacer originally or if it has been added is the question. Some shafts in tractors are already longer from factory to allow of use of spacer and some shafts have been cut and have a piece welded into length to allow of use of spacer. This was real common practice back in the day either at the dealer or local blacksmith or fab shop. Shaft is not severe hard material so it can be done. I have spacers if you need one with different lengths. They range from 2 inches to 4 inches depending on what you need to get the level you want. Yes you could put a spacer in your duckbill 30 but probably have to find longer shaft or cut and extend yours. The amount of force it takes to press off spindles is pretty intense plus getting the spindles back on once you pressed off would just as hard to accomplish. Not saying you cant accomplish this just saying the spindles wont just fall off.
