    So would it be better just to switch it to grease instead of fluid. I could drill it out and install a zert if it would be better for the steering box

    Steering is fixed, I forgot to put the bolts back in the front axle from the day I removed the bumper. Greased all of the fittings on the front end. What is the recommended fluid for the steering box is there a plug to drain it?

    Got my 8n running again still issues

    I did check by unscrewing the main jet needle when I removed it, the tractor would cut off and I would place it back in and it would keep running. I will check plugs this weekend maybe and take carb off to check the jet sizes, now I did tighten the small brass screw on the side of my carb and I...
