I wanted to let anyone with an LS to check the steering axle stops. We were servicing dads I 3040 Thursday and had the right front wheel off getting a bale twine out from around the front hub. I looked down and noticed the bolt thats the steering axle limit had back out to the last 2 threads. It had backed out and the axle housing stub bent it and messed up some of the threads in the hub housing. The jam nut had backed off and was loose on the other side but hadnt moved out. I chased the threads out in the hub housing and put a new bolt and jam nut with some locktite on both sides.
