Like SteveG said, make new blocks install bushings. Then install the blocks on the tractor so that you can take the lift frame and put it into place and get it lined up and tack welded together and if possible finish the welding on the tractor.
this is a job that does not need a lot of precision, other then the holes in the blocks need to be bored for a press fit for the bushing. Which because of the amount of dirt and grit the will be exposed to should be hardened steel bushings similar to the ones that were originally in it. easiest thing to do on the bushings is to just buy new ones.
