    On your digger bolt problem. After installing the shields, weld the bolt heads and then cut a piece of 1/4 inch 2x5 inch plate and weld over the top of the bolts as a wear plate. That will provide you a longer use out of the shields, given, you may need to periodically replace the 1/4 inch wear plates but you will get more use out of them.

    My dad had an electric motor sales and repair shop in northeast Iowa when I was a kid. He did lots of work for the farmers besides just motors. When they would bring in a part like that hub where the race of the bearing had spun he had a large metal lathe. Depending on the situation he could use a knurling tool for internal or external uses and the bearing could be made snug again in the hub, or on the spindle. Sometimes he would use the welder, build up the surface and then turn it to the exact size needed for a repair. He was a very good machinist, welder, electrician, and fabricator. Some of the engineers at John Deere were good friends with dad, they'd come by the shop with an idea and dad would help them out.
