My five-year-old ditch and bank mower seems to be falling apart. This spring the gearbox failed, and took a week or two to get repaired. Today it literally came apart -- the pivot assembly where the mower head attaches to the swing arms broke:
The pivot shaft broke where it was welded into the frame assembly:
I wonder whether a welding shop could repair it? Don't know yet whether a replacement part is available. In either case, getting it out and back in looks like a project.
