Default steering broke

While rototilling with my 149 the steering bound up, so to prevent ruining some rhubarb plants I put the muscle on the wheel, felt it pop, and the 149 turned and acted like it should for the rest of the time I was in the garden, I drove it to the house to hose the tiller down, and left it there until I tried to take it to the barn. I started it up pushed the lever forward to take off and ran into the back of my truck with the steering wheel spinning like a top. Looks like there's a steering column removal on the to do list.
