I Finally had some time to finish pulling the tractor apart. Everything came part fairly easily except the front axle pin. Tried heat and PB Blaster , but without luck so I decided to cut it. I have a spare axle and pin.
After I got it out I was able to press it out with a 20 ton press and noticed a couple of things.
Looking to learn more about these older Cubs.
First the other pin I have has a recessed area to accept grease and secondly the other axle I have has a grease zerk. The PN for the axles is the same except for the R# with the one with the zerk having a higher number.
Do the R# stand for revisions?
Was the original axle pin on the 100 solid like mine or did someone swap out the original for a piece of rod?
Thanks
