The last abused section of my TLB restoration is the front loader.
Worn pins, worn bushings and totally rusted pins are my nemesis.
There's no getting this bucket off any other way than cutting pins - and that I did.
And no way to do it easily. Several hours of sawing, blade changing, and strong language made it successful.
So let that be a lesson to ya! Grease is good for pins and other tractor things and prevents rust!
if I can't get the old pin remnants out and damage from rust is too severe, I will be making some parts too.
Here's some pics of the current situation.
