Thanks Dick L.
I got the tool box off.
Thanks for the information it helped!

I bought the toolbox from sandy lake implement
it was $85 but it is nice.

I took the sheet metal cover off the steering shaft so I could fix a bend in it
Do i need to put oil back in it when i put it back
and should i just dump it in?
Thanks again for the help!

Where you talkin about dumping oil? It takes oil in the stearing gear box but if your talkin about dumping oil down the shaft it will just run out and make a mess. Wipeing the shaft with oil would retard rust if you let it set out side a lot. A drop or two of oil on the shaft under the stearing wheel every once in a while is a good idea.

NMC, Where did you get a new tool box? I have a B torn down and about ready to start back up. Someone beat it up real bad. Its caved in next to where the battery is. I'm assuming it was altered to mount some type of implement.Sure would like a new one. Kind of new at fixing sheet metal. This one has a crease in it I don't know how to get out without cutting it. Don't own a mig welder. Steering wheel was hard to get off. Put puller on it for about a week before it finally moved.Good luck getting yours on! Thanks for any info.

I make my own out of 18 gage steel. Not a big job with a metal cutting blade in a saber saw, some small C clamps, and a drill. I flaten the old one and remove the door by drilling the spot welds from the back.

Thanks Dick, Good idea! When you got ready to bent it in the middle did you do it around a pipe or something to get a good smooth turn? This box is going to be pretty much what I need to do next.Think I can better handle the fabrication than the fix. What about riveting the hole cover on instead of welding. Could bolt or rivet the tank bracket also. What ya think. Also any ideas on the gas tank? This one looks good until its turned over.Boiled out at radiator shop,thinking about JB Weld,fiberglass, and por-roc tank sealer. Couple of good size holes. Know of anything better?

I bend it over a pipe, I think it is 3" but would have to measure it to be sure. I use a 2"X 4" jig and push the pipe down through the jig to keep it from kinking, while making sure the sides stay even.
I used small bolts on my first one, but rivits would work. I bought a hand spot welder and now use that.
The radiator shop can fix the holes. I have used the JB Weld, Bondo, solder, and brazed some. You need to know what your doing when brazing, they can go boom.

Fun aint it. Pop the stearing arm off at the box, remove the housing bracket, take the two bolts out that hold the stearing box to the torque tube,remove the stearing wheel,(might want to do this first) remove the clips that hold the stearing column to the support, then slide the tool box/ tank support off the top end of the stearing column, The pressure line to the hydraulic system gage needs to come off sometime in the process.

I second the comment about pulling the wheel first. I took my unit off the tractor then discovered the hollow shaft won't take a standard puller withour deforming. I'm going to mount the box to my spare toque tube and heat the wheel to try to get it off (the original tube is all painted and I'm not putting that filthy gearbox back on it).

If, I say if :^D, you have the nut off the center of the center of the stearing wheel and you have heated the hub at the outer edge and you are still having problems getting it off. ( it aint hot enough and you don't have a big enough hammer) The tough ones I get the hub red hot and whack it real hard on the bottom of the hub. Never spend more than five minutes. I am to darn old to waist what time I have left on getting rusty stuff apart.
