Lower link arm ball size

Hi All Another little problem I have. All the ends on my lower link arms were badly worn so I brought new ends and welded on, what I didn't realise is that the ends are different, either they have been put on wrong many moons ago or the pins on the tractor end is wrong.

Re: Brazing Rods
