Massey 50. How deep does this rabbit hole go?

So I picked this tractor up last weekend. The power steering cylinder was leaking and I have since fixed that. While looking into the power steering cylinder I noticed the tire rod ends seemed loose. Jacked her up and found the spindle bearings destroyed & the list just keeps going. I think its really cool to bring these things back to life. Parts prices dont seem too expensive, so that makes it all the more fun. So far I have ordered the outer tire rod ends, Radiator, spindle bearings and bushing kit, new front tires and inner tubes. Below are a few pictures of my progress.

. The bushings look ok at first glance but the kit I bought come with new upper bushing and dust seals.
 
take the spindle and see how much upper and lower slop there is, now is time to change.I have usually seen the worst on the lower, but not sure how having a real thrust bearing changes that.
 
A 50 with a Perkins Diesel....you won the lottery.......great Tractor......:)

To see or even know of a 50 with a Diesel is a thing of beauty....:)
