Top link on a Deere 4650. It was bent like this when I bought the tractor. I'd like to get the top link screwed in farther but the end has to be straight first. It's 1 5/8" thick. I have a gut feeling it'll crack or break if I straighten it cold but heating it won't do it any good either strength-wise. Getting it perfectly straight so it'll screw into the housing easily will be time consuming unless I get lucky the first time. I can buy a new one from Deere but if it'll survive a straightening I'll save a lot of money. What do you think? Any advice? thanks. Jim
