If there are any wear grooves in the face of the flywheel, it should be turned. While you are at it, inspect the ring gear carefully. It should have a bit of taper to the teeth on the side that the starter bendix gear engages. But if you have any half broken teeth or badly chipped teeth, then replace it now. I bought a new one from FNH for a IH300U for about $35 a couple of years ago. You can probably get the shop that does the flywheel surfacing to install the ring gear for a reasonable price.
After years of not being totally satisfied with flywheel and press plate service, I found the "Clutch Doctor" just north of Forest Lake MN. He is also into old tractors and does excellent work for very reasonable $$. He also does mail order business. He has the knowledge, the right equipment, and the jigs for setting up clutch and press plate together. He does the work himself and stands by what he has done. If you need contact info for him, e-mail me and I'll find his business card.
