Did this job a couple weeks ago. Pretty straightforward and I appreciated the advice as well as a post from a few years back with pictures. 2 pieces of advice for the next guy. 1.-the job is simple enough that you are smartbto take it apart then figure what you need to replace. I bought parts up front because they had to come from the warehouse and I was afraid of getting stuck with a snowstorm and no tractor. 2-every job has one "trick". On this one, it is how to get the springs attached to the shoes. I ended up using a needle nosed vice grip. I clamped the shoes together on the mount with a soft jawed Irwin pistol clamp. Then, while the wife "steered"" the spring, I squeezed the vice grips toward the clamp with a water pump plier. Worked slick. By the way, didnt replace the gaskets as they were fine. Have pictures that I'll try to figure out how to attach.
