You're welcome!
Thanks Lance. Excellent teaching.

Have TO35 I need to do ki going s,bushi go and center pin this winter. Video is HUGE help. I'm sure I could have gotten through it,but seeing it done by someone who's done it is like having a helper in the shop with me. Great instructions
Glad it helped
@@BundyBearsShed dumb spell check
Should've read,spindles, bushings and center pin
Najbolji majstor na svetu. Nikad nece biti bolji !
Thankyou.
He saves the day again. Brilliant, cheers mate
Happy to help.
I’ve got one bush in mate, but the other side at the bottom, the hole is far too small to get the bush in. There’s a little lip that it won’t go through
Good video. I have to do my Ford 2000. You've convinced me that it will be easier on mine to take the axles off and use my press. That jack stand worries me. Good Luck, Rick
Good luck!
mh 8N has (likely) a busted key so I've got a similar task ahead. This helps a lot! Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Another fantastic video Bundy, love your work. :)
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video Lance - keep 'em coming!
More to come!
Thanks Bundy, just did my ford 8N 1950. All those tricks worked out. Made my press out of all thread. This Yank sure thanks you... 🍻

They can be for sure.
I appreciate you sharing your knowledge, I enjoy the videos!

Another excellent and well timed 'how to'. You must have known I recently bought a kit to do my Kingpins Lance 👍
Yep knew all about it, lol.
Great videos. Have a 79 MF285. Always check to see if you have discussed what I am repairing for tips on what to watch for.
Cool, thanks

thats lovely tell ya mum .....never heard that one...love it brilliant vids
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you I have a IH 454 and the king pins move up and down about 1/4 inch I was wondering how to change them
Same as on the Fergusons here. They all seem to have the same basic idea.
@@BundyBearsShed thank you
Hello Bundy, really learning a lot from your videos. I have a Massey Ferguson 282. Circa 1983 model. I’m replacing the front wheel bearings and realized the thrust bearings are also shot. Having a difficult time removing the kingpin. I engineered a kingpin pusher(not puller). It is apparent to me I have to use heat. Any drawbacks to heat I need to be aware of?
Not really just let it cool naturally so it doesn't go brittle but its normally not a problem.
I'm wondering on those bushings if you put them in the freezer overnight before installing if they would shrink enough to make install much faster? Maybe even heat up those arms to expand some as well
Yes it possibly would but I was more worried about the bushes being straight than how long it took.
That's how we put in engine sleeves. We put them in dry ice before installing them.
Nice video I'm getting ready to do this repair on my Ferguson. I won't know until I tear it apart but my kingpin is extremely sloppy and I'm afraid it may have worn through the bushing and into the axle. Have you ever seen that happen? If so is there any way to fix it?
Yes it can happen, You can epoxy the new bushes in place and that seems to work well
VERY informative, thank you. We have a Farmall560, and everything I see for this item called a spindle not king pins, is that a term per tractor? Either way I learned a lot!
That is correct, different countries have different terminology like a hood in the USA is a Bonnet over here or Fenders is a mud guard here in Australia and Wings in the UK.
This applies to mf 165
Yes usually.
I just replaced the king pins on my MF165 with Bear Co parts, The bushes were all the same part numb but 2 required reaming and 2 were to size once fitted, as it worked out the top ones required reaming. My tractor has the cast weighted hubs and the dust covers are larger than on the supplied king pins, it also had spacers behind the bearings which look a bit the worst for where. Is their need to fit the spacers?
No need usually but with the Australian cast centres you need to use the old dust shield at times depending on which wheels you have. I had to ream a couple of Bareco bushes so I try and only use Sparex now a days and I find there is no need to ream usually as it is a prick of a job I reckon.
@@BundyBearsShed I machined the old dust seals to fit the new stub axles, did some measurements and think all the clearance's will be ok, just need time to get back to finishing it.
Lance, I am tackling my front axle components on my TO30 now and noticed something on the King Pin actions I wanted to ask you about. I have removed the old bushings, top and bottom, from the Axle Extension Assembly...I wish I was as lucky as you in finding the split...LOL. Well, when checking the parts book, I noticed there is only 2 bushings required...was this a mistake in printing, or, did they originally intend to only bush the top and leave the bottom alignment to the Thrust Bearing? Everything I have seen has indicated two bushings on each side; including my tractor had two on each side. What are you thoughts? Thanks again for doing these videos for us...I know I could not have done this without YOU! Blessings to the family!! PS. I knew to look for that dang tin part that got caught up in my assembly...both sides had to be pried out.
Always 2 per side they may be refering to one side only.
Would this work for a farmall cub?
Yes a very similar setup
do you always change spindle? dont you repair it on lathe workshop by welding and turning n grinding?
and i saw u fitting bush by puller, well its good way to fit bush but its so slow. i think you should use any small part of pin but first u have to turn n step face it accordingly to bush size.
(31.5 mm diameter length at least 10mm then 36 mm diameter length according to taste but at least 70mm)

No if the spindle has acceptable wear we use them again but at 60 and 70 years old they are often worn. Being slow in a hobby environment where it gets the job done with simple tools is what my channel is about. It is not for money making shops that need to do things quickly to turn a profit. Many home hobby shops dont have a lathe or mill so I try and keep it to parts that are easily available to the hobby restorer.
That threaded rod could have done with being a bit longer Lance ha ha ha
lol yeah I was too tight arsed to cut it, lol .
Wish I'd seen this three months ago, would've saved me a ton of grief! What's that set of round dies/blanks you're using as bush drifts? Think they featured in the last video too. Did you make them yourself, or are they 'ebay-able'? Handy thing to have. Great tutorial, cheers 👍
They are just a set of drivers from E Bay, I seem to use them all of the time, they are a very handy addition to the workshop. They were only cheap too from memory.
@@BundyBearsShed Just found a 51 piece set for £40. This channel's costing me a bloody fortune!!
@@myharris lol, you should see my spending, lol. It costs me a packet too.
