In the meantime I noticed the shift knobs were wrecked no matter how much I scrubbed wire brush chemicals etc they still wouldn’t get clean. I’m too cheap to buy new. Used med grit sandpaper finished with 2500 . Now they are almost like new just need decals . I have too much time on my hands I guess or maybe just need help Shiny new balls !! I did the same thing on my 520-8 project. I used a piece of rod clamped into my drill press then screwed the knobs onto that and basically did the same thing you did. Knobs turned out great and since my tractors never sit outside they should stay looking good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
