We been waitin for you ta throw another wrench into the works, on your cart, so we can pull some more of our hair out! Got a gully washer last night here as well. I was out in it spreading fertilizer. Been waiting for just this opportunity! Only 2nd rain this summer for us.

Got a kitchen ta do (with a dead line

) I've been workin 11 ta 12 hr. days. So I'm not pleasant ta be around right now.

... I want to go play... And eat ice cream!! WAAAAA!

Its been pretty busy at work for me as you can about imagine. Time and money are the constraints on me with the cart right now. The last thing I did on it was change out the king pins and bushings. The tie rod ends will probably be the next step. Although me and my son have been playing in the yard with it. Drifting around in the water puddles and slinging mud lol.

OH, bet the wife loves that!! Those little tie rods ends are expensive!! Did the new bushings tighten up the front end pretty good?

CajunLoneWolf · 08-01-2011, 08:40 PM

Yep they did. There is no play from them now

Yes the tie rod ends are shot. And to make it even more fun they are frozen in place so imma have to soak them in oil for a few days to see if I can even break them loose

Remember, one is left handed. Can't remember which one. Probably one end on each rod.

If I remember, I'll get under mine, and look tomorrow.

The outer one closest to the spindle is left hand thread. Mine are gold anadized . Inner ones, (on pitman ARM) are right hand thread, and nickelplated.
