Took the Spindles in today to work and crushed them flat with a hydraulic press and bench vise. The shop guy and I put a 3 foot bar on the vice to flatten them out. I reinstalled them this evening and the steering radius is better than stock. Bonus the LT1000 arms after crushing them flat are about 1 inch longer then stock for a quicker steering responce. The only problem I have with the LT1000 Spindles is the the front tires ride a bit too far on the outside.
The front grill was a little rusted so I cleaned it up with some 000 plastic wool then coated it with 6 coats of clear coat paint to make it shine a bit.
This is a rear view of the almost finished tractor all I need is a seat.
