Bet someone's had to deal with this but new to me....

I busted out part of the ball on my tractor lift arm that connects to the three point (its a Massey 231....family tractor so go easy!). It still works but thinking I should look into replacing....so do I look for a new ball and does it press in? Do I buy a replacement tip from tractor store and have it welded on or should I just replace the entire arm?
thoughts appreciated.

Ive had that happen in the past, and I purchased the repair end that includes the ball, then cut the old end off and welded the new repair end on myself. Pretty easy job, just need to make sure the overall length of the arm stays the same, or the distance between the ball centers. Good luck.
