    What do I have for sure?????/Front Axle????

    Thanks for the start on the part numbers I'll do some more digging on the IH website. The tube I picked up has everything attached to bolt up (along with the plate that bolts onto the frame) but is missing spindle on one side and no steering arms or linkages (if that's a word).?..

    Deck cover on an M, Does it need a gasket or not???

    I was wondering how critical it is to have the cork gasket on the deck cover of an M. I've got mine off right now and have cleaned off the old gasket and was wondering if I could get by with a good oil resistant gasket sealer instead of buying a cover gasket. Would there be a clearance issue...
