[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 1965, member: 82"] The lift arms were cracked as you said, but the previous owner welded them up, then looks like it was welded again. Its a horror show, there is a steel plate welded to the top and sides, but they never closed up the crack on the underside, so one side sits lower then the other its just a mess. Then the bobtach pins were drilled out and bolts were put in, also the tilt ram, so another joy for me to fix. It is all repairable, it will just take a little while to complete. I will keep updating the progress. Oh, the rear right axle housing where its welded to the chain case had a cracked weld, all 5 bolts where it bolted to the chassis were loose, so if anyone has loose bolts down there, tighten them up!
