All that holds the front bolster assy on the tractor is the four bolts on each side of the rails. The problem I have always had is that the rails are rusted to the front casting and you have to spread the rails to slide it out. Spreading means removing the two bolts that hold the support for the front of the MD engine and loosening the rear rail bolts. I always block up the tractor just behind the engine with wide blocks preferrably in a pyrimid shape from the floor so they don't tip over if the tractor bumped or if you have supports for splitting the tractor you can use them. I have my Farmall 350 diesel on blocks right now as I am working my way back on the restoration project. I have the front bolster all clean and rebuilt, engine rebuilt and ready to move to the TA.
