Thanks for the replies. I guess I will plan on waiting to weld the front on until the bolster is out. I guess I will have to block up the tractor on the engine while working on it. I do realize that I can unbolt the front wheels from the bolster, but I am actually removing the whole bolster and building new light weight steering setup with the wide front. I will be using a narrowed axle from a peanut trailer for the axle itself. I will use either a right angle 1:1 gear box with a rack and pinion setup or use a 4:1 box mounted up high and a long steering rod to go down to the axle. At this point I can not find the 4:1 box, so it is looking like the first option will be how I go. I need to remove the bolster so I can move weight around. As it is now, I can't even get the front end in the air when pulling in 4th gear. It just blows the tires loose at this point. Plus, I will be able pull it at 4500lb or less if I want to after this.
