This is the PTO engagement adjustment turnbuckle from my 122. What's wrong with this picture?

Yes, that's right, both rods have right hand threads! Somebody must have gone to a lot of trouble to make it happen too. I'm glad I noticed this before adjustments were required.

There was some recent posts about the steering box grease fitting. I noticed that the fitting on my 122 rotated around the mounting hole too. It took grease OK. Is it possible it's meant to be this way?

Little cub story The electric lift was sticking the other day so i took it off . Taking the lift apart found the small brg was gone sunday didnt want to run to town . No brg think roller blades wheels the same brg so you never no what you got till you look.

"Ya just adjust one end at a time anyway!"

Not saying it can't be done, but at 20 threads/inch you better be happy with 0.050" intervals, not to mention that you have to disconnect the rod for each adjustment.

There not stock but they'll do in a pitch. Now I think I could plow into the late evening hours if the need should arive. Wish I had done something like this during the snow season, $15 WalMart specials, what do ya think? Should have the rear light installed tomorrow.
