  1. I would like to repair the left side hinge, right side seems ok. There is bushing on top that seems to keep every thing together. The only way I can see to get things apart would to grind the head off this and possibly drive the pin out. Then what to do for a bushing. I saved a post on this subject between Rob and Mowerman dated 22June 2011 and am still confused. There was mention of turning the hinges upside down and swapping sides has any one done this.

  2. Thanks Mike I opened the hinge looked inside found one bolt really hidden, that was it. Spent over an hour with this simple thing. I am not sure if I will sand blast the cab or have it dipped as I am going to have other parts , battery boxes ,fenders, and others dipped. American metal finishing ,Forest park, OH. north of Cincinnati is close to me .I have had a lot of tractor parts and plows done there with good results. However I understand there can be some problems with this on sheet metal where two parts are joined.

  3. They had me park it in front of the big tent along the main drive at the Expo. The tractor has a cast extension on the front which moves the wheel out about 12". The rear axle is longer than a regular G. The harvester attached to this side and on back. It picked beets that were topped first and loaded on a truck or wagon pulled along side. One row at a time. Why I sold it ? I enjoyed finding the tractor, parts, and working on restoration more than taking it to shows. I sold it and a 1938 G last month. I guess I lost interest. Thanks for all the comments.
