Another interesting video. I would have thought, that if you placed the aftermarket pin in your lathe, and then spent some time with wet & dry abrasive paper, you could have reduced the part to the correct size. I know that it's hardened steel, but it may have taken awhile, but you would have got there. Only a thought... Great job anyway. Looking forward to seeing the hydraulics working. Cheers Jono
This would probably have worked, but as you indicated, would take a some time. For the relatively low cost of the OEM part, $10.99 US, it wasn't worth it to me. If I couldn't easily find the OEM part at a resonable price, then this would be another option. Also, nice hearing from you again Jono!
@@kwrightway i keep wondering how hard it must be not to do a full restoration? I completely understand why you're not, as it's going to be a working piece of kit. Anyway, for a man who knows very little about tractors, I'm very much enjoying - watching and learning. Maybe one day I'll take one on, but I think you really need a place large enough to get it inside, which I don't have. Perhaps one day I'll live somewhere with a barn! Regards J
@@jonnow1234 Though I have the space and most of the tools and equipment, a full restoration is not practical for a working tractor. I wouldn't have the heart to put all the time and effort into a full restoration and then take it out and use it in the brush and fields. As long as I keep that in mind, I can resist the urge to fully restore it.
