I'm a tractor novice guys. Picked up a Ford 4000 SU with a FEL. I realize that's not a great combo. I've babied it, and so far I've got
lucky, but it looks like my luck has run out.
After using the loader and chains to lift and move a hydraulic log splitter, my front left wheel looks like this. Cocked maybe 15 degrees or
more out at the top. What's the diagnosis?
Additional, potentially relevant fact is that the power steering pump is leaking a little at the pressure line. The flange isn't mating
perfectly. Need to re-fill it once in a while, and it feels like it needs it when I parked.
Any thoughts? Is the axle dead? Or the hubs or wheel bearings? How would I know?
