Well, I was bush hogging the edges of the CRP with the 560 yesterday and came to an area I knew had a big washout. Went to follow around the outside edge giving a good 2' breadth away from where I knew the ravine to be and dropped the right front tire in a NEW ditch! Faster than I could say "Oh Sh**t!", I snapped the spindle. What Daddy told me and I now know to be true: If you're unsure of the ground, get OFF and WALK it first! What I don't know: Where to get a new spindle and tie rod end (snapped that too!) It's a wide front, supposedly off an earlier IH (300-400?) as in "not a Swartz". Got the broken pieces off. I'd like to get parts pretty quick so I can get it out of the field. Where? I could put the tricycle front back on, but that's not an easy job in a shop, much less out in the field.
