Ok, so I'm going through my '68 gas 3400. Front axle pivot has alot of slop, just like my 9N so I figure a new bushing is in order. CNH want $119 (messicks) and YT doesn't show one in the parts list. What happened to the $12 bushing!?

I don't have it apart yet (came back to the house for lunch and a 1&5/8" socket).

Is this just the cost of doing business or is there an alternative?
 
What I do is get the part number off of CNH and then google it. I don't know if you will find one cheaper but a lot of that stuff is available after market.
 
Which one do you need? The parts site shows 3 different part numbers and color codes depending on the actual length needed. The same 3 part numbers are listed for the regular ag chassis 2000 and 3000 models as well.

partspring.com shows the "red" "A" part number for $80.25, the ""green" B" part number for $118.00 and the "grey" "C" part number for $146.00:

[u:a1cca697a7]C5NN3403A - length 2.235/2.240" - red on Partspring.com - $80.25[/u:a1cca697a7]
[u:a1cca697a7]C5NN3403B - length 2.245/2.250" - green on Partspring.com - $118.00[/u:a1cca697a7]
[u:a1cca697a7]C5NN3403C - length 2.255/2.260" - grey on Partspring.com - $146.00[/u:a1cca697a7]

Yesterdays tractors only lists the "A" part number and claims it replaces both the "B" and "C" part numbers and lists them for $34.44:

well it looks like it won't be an issue until The Incredible Hulk comes over to break this sucker loose. What, is it torqued to 4000 ft/lbs!?

Of course my largest socket is 1&9/16, I've got a specialty one for motorcycle work that is 12point cut in a sleeve with a 3/8x5/8 stem coming off with a 1/2" square punched in it for a breaker bar. Just manged to twist it in a pretzel.

Used the blue wrench and it's soaking with PB Blaster right now, pipe wrench and floor jack keeping it under tension.....
