the first mow of last season the steering on my cub 149 broke. i haven't had the time to look at it ......but here's what it does: the steering turns all the way to the left and spins freely so that it can't be returned. this all happened while i've been out of town working so i really don't know how this happened......i suspect that while my teenage son could be a factor, it's most like due to wear and tear and tractor age. what should i be looking for when i look into this? the streering has always had play in it, but i'm told by other cub owners that it was less than most old tractors. all of the ball joints have been replaced after one on the left tie rod broke. i have a feeling that the problem is in the steering box. any advice and pics would be much appreciated.
