I have a 66 1030 that meeds new axleshafts, they are flaking where the hubs were. i also have a early 1070 parts tractor with good axles. would they interchange or do i need to look in a junkyard?
 
My MM had that problem, I just jogged the wheels around so the hub was on a good spot in the axle. Swapping axles is a nightmare, you have to remove so much stuff to do it, I've done it, and I'd just assume sell the tractor before I did it again! The only advantage of it was I overhauled the PTO clutch while I had it all opened up.
 
i would consider getting a brass or carbon piece same thickness as keyway an weld flaked area an with patience with grinder an file make it fit . I assume keyway is what it flaking.Bet hubs isent 100% eighter.
 
Had a late model 1030 that was that way when I bought it. Had less than 1000 hrs. Just moved the hubs a little and made sure they were tight. Never caused any more problems. If it is possible to move them and still maintain your desired wheel spacing, I would sure give it a try.
