Jim Craig said: (quoted from post at 18:25:43 11/18/09) Where did you get the parts to rebuild your steering? My 240s steering is very sloppy and I am wondering if parts are available.
got the parts from JP Tractor Salvage near St. Louis that specializes in IH parts. Also found the parts at a salvage in Nebraska, but he wanted to send the entire bolster which probably weighs 250-300#. What happened to mine was someone had replaced the steering arm with one from I think a 404 which was in a bind at the ends of the stroke and wore out the keyway in the shaft part of the gear. Then someone had rotated it 180 degrees and milled a new keyway and wore that out. I bought the worm gear, main gear/shaft, steering arm, bearing cage and all complete with bearings. I have a friend with a well equiped shop and he and his son swapped the parts out and replaced the brake discs in 3 hours. JP didn't dis-assemble it any more than nessesary, which made it easy to put back in.
