This is something that hasn't been mentioned: How well the crank fits. I have seen many tractors that the crank or its shaft was worn to the point where it would wobble and wouldn't stay in place when cranking. We have an MM Z that you can't crank because the crank wont stay in. A kid that worked for us got his eyebrow layed open when the crank came out while cranking. I had to make a new shaft for my Farmall regular because it was worn so bad. I haven't done it yet but I am also going to weld up and redrill the hole in the crank itself to make it fit like original.
