Appreciate your posts, Alex. Thanks.
Installed the quadrant quite a while ago that I bought from you, and yes, removing the pin from the steering u joint was miserable. Used a bolt with ground down head and nut when reinstalling,tho! (my WD does no work for its living, tho.)

How to remove the Throttle Quadrant
on a WD
This how-to
article explains how to remove the aluminum throttle/hyd quadrant on a WD
without removing the levers.
Start by
removing the pin in the steering U-joint. This pin is pressed in and some of
them can be stubborn to remove. 60% of the pins I have tried to remove, needed
partial drilling to get punched out. 40% I punched out without any drilling. If
there is a bolt instead of a pin, its your lucky day. 
Normally
there is an engine in the tractor and the pin will be difficult to punch/drill
out, but it can be done. It will be easier when the magneto or distributor is
removed. It will be even easier yet if the magneto drive/governor section is
removed.
Then slide
the steering wheel and shaft out of the support post and quadrant.
Remove the
bolts that hold the quadrant to the steering support.
Next loosen
the quadrant from the steering support.
Then remove
the friction blocks from the levers. Some may need a bit of persuasion to slide
off.
Turn
the levers so they are both pointing down.
Next, pivot
the quadrant so the top moves back and and slide it down off the levers.
When
installing a different quadrant, follow the procedure in reverse.
