my 2n has a sloppy front end and I am in the process of renewing all the bushings and bearings.
I am having much dificulty in in pulling the center pin. Have tried a slide hammer puller with no results. Soaked it with WD40 for a couple of days and tried again. Put heat to the housing
and still no go. Any suggestions ????

Thanks for the tips..
This is how I got it out.
I rented for free the largest slide hammer axle puller I could find and removed the axle lug adapter. I put the threaded end thru the crank handle opening and to the back of the king pin.
carefully installed a heavy washer and a nut on he puller shaft. I heated the area arround the front of the pin and with about twenty hard slams on the hammer it started to move and the rest was
a snap. I replaced all bushings in the front end
and it feels much different. Thanks again for your reply to my call for help !!

If you are talking about the king pin, someone on the board previously said to forget about PULLING it out, and I found from experience that he was right. What worked for me was pounding it out from the backside (easy for me because I already had the front end off the tractor).

I don't believe that mine would have ever come out from the front unless I could have somehow destroyed it in the process. It was so tight that it took me a couple of hours of pounding on an iron pipe of the diameter of the bushing with a 4-pound hammer and using lots of Liquid Wrench in the process. It was not one of my most fun times, but I finally got it out and replaced it. The old one was worn so bad that one side of the front was a sharp edge. The new one went in a lot easier than the old one coming out. Really tightened up the front end.

Removing the front end is not a terrible job and it may be your only option.

Good luck.

I agree. The only way I got mine out was to pound it out after I had the front end off. What's happened is that the pin is worn so much there is a groove worn in it and that acts as a lip to prevent it from sliding out. Be sure you replace the bushing as well as the pin.
