Hello friends. I'm in the process of rebuilding a 1953 Farmall Super M. Just got the block back from the machine shop. While it's torn down I want to replace the front bearings. (trans driving shaft, front and rear, and front countershaft bearing. In the pic you see on the bottom countershaft something they call a "nut' in the parts manual. Slotted so it can drive the belly pump. Any clues on how to remove it? Torch yes, given how long it's been on there, but is it right, or left hand thread. I appreciate all the help you guys always give me. Hope the picture loads!!! Thanks... Darryl P.S. Lots of wear on the nut where the seal contacts. Do they make a repair sleeve for this, Like they do for Chevy crankshafts where they contact the seal in the timing case cover? Again, many thanks
