    PTO Driveline replacement

    I had to replace just the tubes on my late fathers JD tractor as those green bastards wanted $1800 for a new driveshaft for the front wheels. Did this while I was working at a driveshaft shop. Did have to buy 2 sections of metric splined tube. Still use one section as a cheater bar for my ratchet.

    Air compressor

    What does the tag say on the tank? Things that old were sometimes over-rated for air compressors. My old tank was rated for 300 PSI and the safety switch tripped at 120 PSI. Also in use the air supply is kinda oily so hopefully the tank is not rusty. I would try to get a peak inside of the...
