[Farmall] Front jack stand

[Dean Vinson]

Mark, one other thing... you'd mentioned that front jack stand.  I had a
bunch of 4x4s to work with and figured the design out as I went along, but
the part I liked the best was the little platform on one side for the jack
itself.  I made it the right height for my jack to sit on and just clear the
frame, so I didn't need any other blocks under the jack.  Here's a couple of
pictures:

I was kind of disappointed when that job was done... what else am I going to
do with this neat stand now??

Thank you for including the link to your website, Dean
(_http://www.vinsonfarm.net/_ (http://www.vinsonfarm.net/) ).  I'm
restoring a 42 Farmall B in my garage (on a paved street, in town). I like
your  front jack made from 4x4s - that should work for both the front end
rebuild and  to support the front half after splitting to change out the
clutch,  main seals, etc.  I was amazed that I could buy all gaskets and
seals for  the B - 60+ years later!
