New to me '52 CA, need some input.

Recently acquired my late uncles '52 CA.
The tractor runs good and drives but it has a lot of minor issues. I'm waiting on an I&T manual but in the mean time....

I want to jack it up and pull the front wheels so I can look at the bearings and clean up the wheels and pedestal a little.

I need to know the proper/safe way to jack and support the front end.

Thanks
Larry

I can't post a pic yet but will when I can.

Wide or trike front?? You tell me and maybe I can tell you. If trike a board on the oil pan and a bottle jack works on my C and should on a CA if wide then you do one at a time depending on the type of wide front

No problem jacking at the oil pan but you can also jack it up from the front of the torque tube. I do both but use the torque tube more than the oil pan.

Thanks guys,
It is a narrow front.
I had planned to post a picture but it wouldn't let me as a brand new user.

I loosen up the lugs on both wheels and then drive one wheel up on a 4x4 and remove the loose wheel. Then I can jack up the pedestal and remove the other wheel. Bob
