Hey guys, I've posted this topic in another forum and thought I would share here to see if you guys had any input. This has to do with the 1-row Cultivator for the Farmall Cub, Super A, 100, 130, 140, not just the Cub as it is directed to in the dialogue.
-------------------------------
As many of you are well aware, there are many Cub Cultivator sets (not just Cub really) out there are are in functioning order but are well worn at the joints. With a worn cultivator set, you have a lot of movement and slack in all of the joints causing them to not be very accurate when cultivating through soil and possibly digging up your plants. A good, tight cultivator set is getting harder to find having that 98% of the cultivator sets out there are used and no new ones being made.
I am looking for some suggestions and ideas on how you all have restored them or have seen done. I realize that alot of the joints can be tightened up using the bolts on the brackets, and I will be replacing all bolts on the cultivator with the original style and tightening them that way to see if that helps; but what about the slack from wear when the bolts are tightened all way up? What would you do in that case? Shim? Weld and grind? Sleeve? Has anyone restored a worn set to make them tight again?

Today's Featured Article - The Cletrac General GG and the BF Avery A - A Bit of History - by Mike Ballash. This article is a summary of what I have gathered up from various sources on the Gletrac General GG and the B. F. Avery model A tractors. I am quite sure that most of it is accurate. The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
