trgo,
Sounds like a good plan!
Probably goes without saying - but I'll say it anyway - Don't forget to give a serious eye to the condition of the two main radiator hoses. I doubt they are linked to your low coolant light issue, but the hoses may be decades old and if you're going through your list of work, you may want to simply change out the two main hoses as well.
Lastly, does the your '88 FORD 1920 tractor have a block heater installed? If not, you may want to install one while you have the coolant drained out of it. If it does have a block heater, you may want to plug it in BEFORE you drain out the old coolant to see if it even works. If it doesn't work, I'd replace it. You never know if you might want to use it on a cold Nova Scotia morning or to improve the tractor's resale value someday. Just a couple of thoughts..............
