    Farmall 560 restoration or replace questions.

    Farmall 560 fender spacer/washer frozen (best way to remove)

    Farmall 560 screw in light bracket (pipe) removal

    Update, I had no luck with torch or soaking it in PB Blaster and pipe extractor, so I order from Amazon "Drill America - country of Origin China" - an 1/2 NPT pipe tab and 23/32 drill bit set and to my surprise it worked amazing well, I drilled a little, stopped and I could actually see the...

    John Deere M Decal Placement (repeat)

    thanks for sharing, I find it amusing and frustrating that the places that sell the decals none of the sets are the same and the price range from inexpensive to high cost vinyl .
