This first picture is the operator's console remounted. It's starting to look like a crawler again. I had to fish about a half dozen broken screws out of the thing before I reattached it. The control lever bracket casing was broken into three pieces which wouldn't have been so bad if someone hadn't tried to weld it before.

This next picture shows the remounted hydraulic pump, fan, and radiator supports. I can't believe how nice these cleaned up for as bad as they looked when I started.

Here's the right side view. The temporary starting system is still hooked up but that will be coming off tonight so that I can give the whole thing a coat of paint.

This is one of the last straightening problems I've got to figure out. The cylinder support on the left is going to be a job. The steel Deere used on these isn't that tough so I should be able to get it wiggled around with some heat and my really big hammer.

And finally, one of those time consuming little jobs. What you see in this picture is the tops of the two pivot pins that hold the fixed end of the 3pt cylinders. The pins had to be cut or otherwise destroyed to remove them. I'm going to take a little bit of license with the restoration at this point and put a grease fitting in the end of the new pins so the joint can be greased (this will make them the re-lube style pins as seen on jdparts.com under flag pivot pins). I'll get some pictures of the finished products.

All for now. I've got more sheet metal work to do before I can put the hood and grill frame back on. The wiring harness is repaired and rewrapped so it looks great. Might be down to just the undercarriage this week.
