Getting the 17A back together, new gears, new Cat bearings,Dou-Cone seal assemblies.
 

Looks good. You know that's going to make you want to paint the rest of the tractor...

Thats in the rebuild shop quote, lol

I know of a D7D that is about 90 miles south of Austin. It has been sitting for a year with seals out in the finals, it was running. It has a cable 7S blade and a root plow loop. I think it can be bought at a reasonable price. I will be going past it this weekend and I can post some pictures of it if you are interested.

I don’t see your white coveralls hung up in any of your pics Rome-nice clean work and showing your parts source will help someone down the road.

Kerp’em coming.

Very nice will last forever

They're in the washing machine, lol
I bought these gears years ago, they are CGR, made in Italy, good quality, I believe I got them from American Crane & Tractor. 

 

Steering clutches are already done with new brake bands, seals and bearings on cross shaft and pinions, all seal surfaces were chromed for long life. Clutch booster rebuilt also.

Did you have to put any new gears in? When I went through mine Coarse Tooth bull gears were getting a little hard to find, reduction gears too for that matter. 17afarmer
