Hello guys, had my tractor going great, after I got the overheating issue fixed. But it broke the Lower Link Pin. Looking at the other side, and what's left of the broken one, they seem like they screw on, but there is no way to turn it unless you put a bar through the hole in it.
I see that the Link Pins seem to be part of an assembly that also holds the Rear Differential in place, so removing that seems like is not the intended way to go.
Any thoughts?

The hole is for a pin, clip or nut and bolt. If the machine is anything like the old Fords, you will have to remove both axle halves to replace the pins which are only accessible from INSIDE. If you try to tighten using the pin hole, you may luck out and it will tighten. But again, not likely. Fords had a seal around the pin which leaked from the pin wobbling from being loose. ....
