Someone correct me if I am wrong, but getting a tractor into working order, and looking representative of new is considered restoring it. Replacing every wearable part, even if it is within tolerance is remanufacturing it. Personally, if it has been working since it was built, I leave it pretty much alone, unless it is in a location that is usually unaccessable. When I replaced the clutch on our W6, I replaced every seal and gasket I could while I was in there. The only one I didn't replace was the engine's rear main seal, as I don't have a workspace to facilitate pulling the motor. Guess what I am noticing has a slight leak now??? You guessed it, the one seal I didn't replace. It is a very little leak, so I will just have to keep an eye on it, but I guess I can see both sides to the argument now.
