I pulled a steering arm off of the spindle on one of my D 17s and the woodruff key appears to be the HiPro style 3/8" x 1 1/4". Can anyone tell me if this is correct and if so where can these be purchased ?

I don't know if that is correct, but you should be able to get most any style/size key from McMaster-Carr: www.mcmaster.com

Any AGCO Dealership can get it for you. I have never seen a Hi-Pro key shear....it always ruins the keyway in the steering arm or spindle or both. You'll probably wind up reassembling it and positioning the arm (arm to tire distance) the same as the other side and welding the arm to the spindle.
