I logged on today to express my thanks for the efforts of COTA's admin and members for all of the help and advise over the past year. When I read your post, it reminded me of all of the blessings we experience. I pray the best for you and yours and thanks to all for your dedication!
Lots of great information. I initally hauled my 354 with a Ford Expedition and currently with a Chevy 1/2 ton on a car hauler trailer. No matter the pulling truck one also has to be extremely careful on wet or snow / icy roads. The same effect as a light tow vehicle is felt on wet roads. Extreme awareness has to be the safety rule as well. Best to all…
I also thank “Mr. COTA” for his efforts and to those who post helpful infomation on a regular basis. Especially helpful for we rookies. Have fun…
All right the post worked so here goes.
Tommy – Thanks for your fast response and advise. I am looking into a local solution but still might have to order the part. Hope to know in a day or so.
PD, Tom and Len – Sorry for the delay in responding to your comments but I was unable to post a topic in the last few days. So the story is, I was spreading top soil, taking dirt from a pile and distributing it. The soil was wet and heavy. I had a full bucket and was traming to the drop area. I was traveling slowly in low range, second gear and the tractor was bouncing. I went into a shallow dip in the lawn, the tractor bounced up then down with some force, and I heard a crack sound. The front brackets had broken. Some of the bolts had sheared off. I will try to post pictures.
I have not found anyone who has experienced this problem, nor do dealers in the US stock the parts. Thanks to you who have responded
When I attempted to post pictures, I got a window that said that the file is too large to attach. If you email me, ichrise@atlanticbb.net I will send pictures.
Thanks again
