I would approach it the same as any 4x4.
First raise the wheels slightly off the ground, reach under with a pry bar and lift while feeling and watching for any movement. Then do the left-right shake for any looseness.
If anything is worn, look at what it would take to tighten it back up.
Then get it on a level concrete surface, drive it forward and stop without rolling back.
Check the camber with a level. I would think it should be straight, 90* to the surface.
Then turn the steering fully lock to lock, count back half the turns, (be sure the steering gear goes lock to lock, not one of the wheels running up against the stop) then check the wheel parallelism to the tractor, and the toe in. Several ways to do it, pull strings from the rear wheels, getting them straight and parallel, measure from the strings to the sides of the front tires. This method gets the wheels straight with the steering centered. Be sure the wheels are running true, a bent wheel will throw the measurements way off!
Not sure what the toe in would be if any. It's not that critical running only off road. Just look for major misalignment.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
