It knew was too good to be true.
Oh well.
Luckily, there is a Massey Ferguson repair shop fairly close by. They said they'd have a look at them and see what they can do.
It doesn't look to be too big a job getting them off. Just drain the oil and unbolt them. Hopefully it won't make too much of a mess.
