Ok.... So I inherited a 1966 Case 530 CK...
I have been running it a bit after it has sat for a while.. There are a couple issues it has that I am gonna look into.. But right now it has one major issue that I am worried about..
The spindle to steering knuckle (I am an auto mechanic by trade so those are just what I am going to call them until told differently) is jointed together by splines... Well they are loose.. The spindle moves a good 5 or more degrees without the steering knuckle moving.. I pulled it apart and I can't tell for sure which one or if both are worn..
Anyone know which is the weak one of these.. Or if I should just plan on looking for both of them or is there a fix?? I found a picture here and were talking part numbers 4 and 42... but 42 uses a pinch bolt and my case doesn't.. mine uses a 1 11/16 castle nut....
