This big old brute of a Ford TW25 tractor came in for a simple front axle hub seal replacement, however, after taking it apart the sealing surfaces on the steering joints were found to be baldly worn, pitted and scored. New genuine replacements are obsolete and the non genuine are of poor quality so the decision was made to repair the old ones.
Into the lathe they go to machine out the damaged surface. Fire up the newly purchased jasic tig welded and test out my very limited tig welding skills! Machined back down to size and refitted with new seals the brass bearings/bushes.
Hope you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching!
