The original subject was "Early 3000 front spindles".
In case anyone is wondering, I couldn't figure out why the new spindles I bought would not fit the front end on my 1965 3000 ag tractor. As it turns out, the spindles are a match for 4-cylinder 2000 spindles. So maybe someone swapped the axle ends? The bushings are the same size but there is no seal like the 3-cylinder ones.
Unless anyone has seen a very early 3000 with those spindles before?
