Sears 10XL update - thanks Bob

Thank you to Bob and t.r.k. for the repair ideas. I ended up going with Bobs idea. Bought two rod ends from
McMaster-Carr and cut a piece of threaded rod and a piece of tubing to length I needed and it turned out
real good. Can hardly tell the difference from the original. I guess when you own a 51 year old tractor
things like this will happen from time to time.

Glad it worked for you, but I can't take credit for the idea!

Last summer I worked on an older Sears that was made like that from the factory!

Wow, that looks great! My Dad bought one of those brand new back in '69 or '70.
