Massey Ferguson 3165
I have a 1967 Massey Ferguson 3165 that the steering sucks on.
I have checked the pump & then was told that if the bushings on the spindles are worn out it will be a bear to steer.

Any hints on what I'm getting into...
I just ordered the service & parts books today & I do not think they will be here by this weekend. I was hoping to get it torn apart, cleaned & ready for new bearings/bushings.
Special tools? (other than the BFH)
Other things to look for??

All comments are greatly appreciated!!

Did you get the bushings replaced? I am looking forward to that task on my 3165.

I'd be interested in hearing what you did... I need to do this on my MF135.
