I just bought a ford 4500 hoe/loader ,i think a 73,just greased it and discovered the swing arm bushing on bottom is worn bad enough that the grease zert can't be found.The center of the pin is way off center.Is there a bushing that can be replaced or does the housing boss have'd to be build't up with welds.Would appreciate any insight to this repair.
