Forgive the spelling, fingers got crossed again. Still learning to type. Strange that I work on typewriters for 8 yrs and never learned to type until I got a computer.
Totally agree and feel the pain of that. I still recovering the last injury of my hand and arm. I think I actually broke a finger right at the joint. Boy I was feeling it yesterday and the cold weather isn't helping. The die grinder was ice cold after 10 minutes of use.
Boy it took nearly an hour with a die grinder to cut out two grade 10.9 bolts and I still got two more to do. I had to be extra carefully as to not grind something unintentionally. At least the bushings are nylon but there is metal sleeve on the bolts. It should had been simple to remove two nuts and slide the pivot bolts out but everything was rusted solid. What worst is this UTV is a hybrid when comes to the bolts and screws. Both metric and SAE so a lot more tools to deal with me at one point thinking I was going need to drag the whole tool box set out but is a pain to move that 44" set around. I actually going Sunday to get another 44" top box for the other 44" cabinet.
I know I going to have problems when I see a Cub Cadet ZTR come in the shop with drive problems. I usually end up with torch and puller to the engine pulley off as they don't bother to use anti-seize at the factory. I know I am going to destroy the pulley nearly 100% of the time but the last one I also destroyed my puller. I stripped the jack screw using just a 1/2" dr ratchet. Must had been already to fail after 8 yrs of use.
