You don't weld the bushing to take it out. Use the drain plug hole to insert a rounded off nut and thread a threaded rod through it. Then just turn a long hexagon nut until the bushing comes out. That is what that drain plug is for. It makes the job much easier.
Awesome technique! Did the draw bar shaft seal up ok? Mine looks about like yours and I'm a thinking I should replace it, but if yours is holding solid, I'll skip it.
nice job , if u throw the bushings in the fringe for 1 hour it would go in with 1 hand , still trying to figure out how the draft control get ingage with that shaft at this tractors
Did you figure it out? I am wondering if I pull the shaft out on my 2355, will I be able to get the new shaft in without removing the top of the trans to relieve pressure on the load control arm? It feels like it is pushing hard against the load control shaft
I recently finished this same project on my 2130. When I got everything back in place and fired her up my lift arms went straight up and I haven't been able to get them back down. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
@@mjmcomputers I've replaced several shafts, seals & bushings, haven't ran across any bound up on the shaft. Not saying it can't happen, typically the seals & shafts are the culprit.
Looks pretty hard to me. Must be a John Deere thing. Buy a Ford 8N. I’ve never had to do that. Btw. I have 3 Fords that are project ready! Lol. Thanks for sharing.

Perfect timing! My bushings just came in, I also went ahead and bought the whole shaft
Good job, you do well when "winging it". Looks like I have to do the same job on our 2755.
Great video, thanks for the pointers.
Good job.
Good explanation, I'm a do it on a 4430 I don't know if is gonna be the same but I have a better idea on how to do it..

So far no leaks.
Use a race driver to tap your bushings in
thanks i have to do on my 2130 jd in the snow

They aren’t bound up on the shaft?
