I'm just finishing this work on my Super H (thanks for the photos and earlier description, Bob). What got me started was when I took the loader off and installed a 3 pnt, a heavy load lightened the front end enough where it would clank as the nose bounced off the ground. I replaced all three bushings, most trouble was the lower pivot shaft and the one on the front supporting the worm gear. Used the hacksaw trick on the lower, was able to beat the upper out eventually. The upper pivot shaft bushing just slid out fairly easy. Hardest thing to re-install was the oil seal under the upper pivot shaft bushing in the wish-bone.

As far as the vertical slack in the assy, I had the spacer, installed a new thrust bearing and still had the same problem. So I bought a couple 3/4" washers and used a boring head on a lathe to open the center to the dimention of the upper pivot shaft and installed them under the sector gear. I figured that would keep the normal worm/sector allignment but stop the clanking. I think I will go ahead with power steering while it's apart, and also updating to 12volts, fixing the radiator, replacing some gaskets and hoses while I'm in there.
