wobble in B arch front end ?

How do you repair the wobble in the spindle shafts? There doesn't seem to be any bearings and the shaft wobbles about 1/4". Thanks

there might be a bushing in there that's worn out and needs to replaced

There is bushings at the top and bottom that can be replaced. If the king pin itself is worn it can be welded up and turned down at a machine shop.

Had wobble in my B front end also, like the previous comments said the bushings were worn, the other thing was right under the engine at the front there is a square headed bolt that needs to be welded to the flat area there. The wishbone is bolted to that, if it is loose (weld broken like mine was) there is alot of wobble in the front end. Also at the bell housing the hole at the bottom where the front end support bolt goes thru needed a bushing also. Now no more wobble. I got the parts from this site and Tonys tractors. These are flat and thin and look like they are not there but reminants of them are and need to be taken out prior to inserting the new ones.

You need to replace the upper and lower bushings on the wishbone axle and weld up and turn down the spindle to a tight fit. Also you can replace the pivot stud.
