I was just going through the FAQs again, because the more I learn about these tractors, the more some of the FAQs make sense to me. I noticed Kendell Ide's description of how to tighten up a loose front axle, because I just performed that repair on my 1450 today. Kendell shows the pivot pin should be driven out from back to front. I drove mine out from front to back, because the parts manual appears to show the pin behind the axle. Are these pins supposed to be able to be driven in either direction, or is mine worn so badly that it goes through in either direction? Or, do some models go one direction and others the reverse? I guess it really doesn't matter, as long as I got it out, but If I'm doing something wrong, I'd like to know...
