Started a post in tractor talk a few days ago and was advised to start out with a smaller style tractor for working on in my 2 car garage. Ive pretty much decided to try a 420 or 430 model. Now for my questions:
1) Can anyone tell me the largest size socket that would be needed on these models?
2) Would a moderate size set of 3/8" and 1/2" inch drives be adequate for all the dismantling and reassembling required?
3) Do you guys use impact socket sets very much in these projects?
4)Finally, there seem to be 3 main types of torque wrenches that you can buy; beam, clicker-type and electronic/digital. Kinda need a consensus on this as I am only going to buy once and want the confidence that it is accurate and best suited for tractor work. I sure don't want to start any nasty arguments between any of you just value very much all of your opinions.
Rest assured that all replys will be read and appreciated.
