Saw other videos on bending them back and thought to myself "hey, why not weld a gusset on there". Great job. Thanks. There is also a mod to install bearings at the bottom of the knuckle to allow it to steer easier.

Mine is still like new yet and in perfect alignment, but I'm going to take it apart and do this mod for sure! No sense in waiting till it's bent. The tie rod ends need an upgrade too.

It looks like a brand new OEM part. Beautiful, why doesn"t craftsman add this brace on all its new tractors or at least offer it as an upgrade.

If you want to do a quick fix, take the wheel off. Put a piece of pipe on the spindle shaft & push forward.

Great video. What's the tool you're using to remove the wheel dust cap? Thanks!
@WeekendHobbyMechanic

Hairdryer or propane touch to heat the cap. Then any hook to pull it off the retaining washer.

I have a Craftsman KT 725 with a 22 HP Kohler engine. I have a front right tire wearing badly. Manual says that the toe-in is not adjustable. So is this the fix for one of those type riding mowers(7000 series)? If so, I could probably handle the bending part and if the repair to your second wheel is involved, I could get my son's father in law to make me a bracket since he's a semi retired welder. But if there's another fix for my model, do you have any suggestions? Thanks. Good video BTW!

You can remove the wheel, put a piece of pipe on it & bent it back in position and run it like that.

Hello a question,I ordered the piston for my mower and I received two one is standard and one oversized,what’s the difference and whichvone I need to use
@WeekendHobbyMechanic
2 ай бұрын
Probably the standard bore Piston will fit. Why are you changing it? The oversize piston is probably 0.010inch oversize. It will not fit unless you bring it to a machine shop that work on there motors. They will machine the right size bore to match the oversize piston.

Waaaaay too much work. The problem isn't those spindles bending anyway it's the tie rods simple fixes remove the tie rod from the spindle drilling new hole towards the front insert the tie rod back in and you're done. I've done a gazillion of those I never had anybody come back.
