I have done those idlers on the upper raddle in season my self. As you well know doable but there had to be a better design.

As to finding problems I have found a Mechnics Stethescope to be invaluable. Alot cheaper than paying to have it done and I think I do a better job. Of course on a Gleaner you can get at almost all of the bearings when things are spinning.

Trading to solve problems with a combine has been a mutually exclusive venture on our Ranch LOL. Of course I think the only new combine we ever owned was a Case A6.

Got to the program of cleaning the machine (WITH AIR and by taking things apart) at the end of the season and doing the pre harvest fixes then. Lets me take the time needed and gets me to the field quicker next year. Also removes food for the varmits over the year.

BE CAREFUL OF THE HEAT. Would bet Mrs Allen would sell your tractors and buy more Horses if something happened to you!!
