I am going to try and hammer the bearing races out tomorrow and see how damaged the hub looks with that out and cleaned up. But yeah, the spindle tip seems like the threads are worn down and a bit wallered out in the key hole and perhaps hourglassed a bit. Will take the micrometer with me tomorrow and see how much out of flat it is.
I have seen those wheel clamp nuts, I think I may have to invest in a pair, as I am sure the other side is boogered up too. I was hoping to keep this tractor as original as possible, so new hubs and spindles are not out of the question, but I want to make sure these are beyond salvaging (for a reasonable price).
Thanks for all the advice and thoughts, guys. I think this one is going to put my meager mechanical abilities to the test. :o
