See what you mean about the front rims. They would look better with a different tire instead of those wheelbarrow tires.
You can look for cheap beat up tow carts as many older ones used the style of rim you want. Or even a nice one and swap those wheels on to it.
I would look for a Kohler K91 to power it

Go check out my thread - dennys free suburban work.... I thought my fronts were shot too but they are coming along nicely. Some good tips from other members ther as well.

Did you find a steering rod? if not they are just 3/4" bar stock and can be easily made.

If you have the size and hub width and show a picture I may have rims or can locate a match for you if you are still looking.

Jim, I believe he's talking about the drag link which is the wear item. If you're not concerned about absolute original they are easily made as well. Two readily available (TSC, Ace, etc.) ends. a piece of 3/8"-24 threaded rod and (optional) a piece of 1/2" od tubing. My sector was pretty cobbled up and I wasn't real comfortable with the threads so I drilled through for a roll pin.
