    Well, something else is damaged, but wasn't included in quote...
    Copy of his email from dealer...:bug::jaw::hair::hair::hair::loco: :crazy::loco: :crazy: Screenshot_20250124_061552_Messenger.jpg
    This is almost $1800 more than it cost to have the transmission rebuilt on the Kubota...

    Um no thanks!

    Theses bolts break 90% of the time. Heat, weasel pizz and mechanical ability be dammed. With time and money considered it’s better to just snap them off and replace the manifold.

    I wouldn’t be surprised. Every time I come across an other than normal situation and need to fight the steering wheel, I wonder how manufacturers are able to put these “features” in a car without assuming a ton of additional liability.

    I had about an hour day light left after carrying out some pole length wood for tomorrow's wood processing day. First Free day in a long time. Then I thought that I'd push back a few limbs that were alone the field and a 3 foot boomerang about 3 inches in diameter decided to break off the valve stem. So you know what I'll be doing in the morning.

    At least it was just the valve stem and not the tire. Still sucks .
