hehe...i broke the turnbuckle on the steering rod....on a sunday....but luckily i was able to bring it in the basement and weld it....hehe..4mm turnbuckle and i welded it...but i'm still running it....you must have done something similar to what i did...i broke the lower front arm, front axle, bent the upper arm pivot pin, and broke the turnbuckle all at the same time...oh..and trashed the muffler too....<G>
