A day out on the Sun (65F in Chicago right now) after 3 months of Winter, six pack of beer, working on a 27 y/o tractor just because I had noting better to do and dirty finger nails at the end of the day...priceless!!!

You may be long gone from here, but thank you all the same. Misjudged a tight turn and slammed the left front tire into a phone pole, I'm sure something's bent and this diagram is going to help me this weekend.
