Yup, Tractor Supply is a great place to shop. That's where I bought my MIG welder several years ago, and I use their hardware section quite often. The front tires on my 1952 Farmall Super C came from

I had a similar experience in the late 80s with a Volvo 240 automatic trans (Borg-Warner). It took me about 20 hours on the bench and a rebuilt torque converter, but it worked fine for a couple years
