    Case 580D 2WD Front Axle Pivot Pin And Bushing Replacement

    Anyone ever replace the bushings and pivot pin on the front axle of a 2WD Case 580D. I have a service manual but it does not have a procedure. Do you have to remove the front axle or can you just support everything and work on it in place? Thanks
