Thanks to Billpoor for the inner tie rods and TM tractor for the tubes, he even sent a couple of shims to set the balljoints, have a look.

Nice! Hopefully I can salvage mine, just starting on the front end. I looked at what Tom at TM has for new parts and they sure show he has an eye for quality.

I noticed your left wheel is set farther out than the right. Shorty was the same way only more so when he came to live here and I never knew why. Do you know? Getting the axle tubes freed up was a MAJOR project, but all is well now.

George i don't know why but the front tires line up with the rear pretty well. I would hat to think what it would take to get the axle to move. When I first broke my tie rod it was almost impossible to get out and replace. The one I put in was a little bent and I had to drive it in, what a chore. I also couldn't get a decent alignment. When I saw the new ones Bill poor had, I couldn't live without them.
Thanks DYT4000, great forum here huh?

You mean they aren't supposed to be that way? I thought it was to make them look like "real" tractors. :lol:
