[Farmall] CUB Pulley

[E. John Puckett]

The service manual recommends putting the pulley in boiling water for a 
few minutes.  That way it doesn't get hot enough to damage the seal.  I 
believe the threads are 1/2 rather than 7/16, but not sure.  Just pull 
it on until it bottoms solidly.  do not drive it on, you can damage the 
thrust shoulders on the center main bearing.
