Somehow my brother bent the tie rod on our John Deere tractor I think he hit a stump but who the hell knows
I’ve straightened it to get me by for now but it’s worn flat in spots where it was rubbing after it bent and he kept using it
Deere does not sell just the tube only the assembly which is 350$
Old rod is 1.250 od and .930 Id, just under 3”3 feet long . threaded on both ends
Should I use 1018 or would moving up to cromoly provide any worthwhile benefit.
