Kubota L4740 sold. As of Jan 2023 I have a new L2502.
Wheel frame bent and I don’t even know how or when it happened. Bent it rather straight but I think I will brace it.

Why post this twice??
I think it would be best to keep your original thread going and not clutter the forums with duplicate posts. Your thread states the problem, then states your solution, not sure if any of us can help if you already found the solution. Am I missing something?

Didn’ think the first post went through so I posted it again.

Pretty common occurrence when you aren't watching where the tail wheel is in relationship to where you are going, especially when reversing. Be more cognizant in the future. Far as bracing it, I'd like to see what you come up with....

I would be tempted to straighten it and leave it as is. It may act like a fuse, if that breaks it's an easy fix, further up the mower you start getting a bit harder.

I think you are right. I straighten it and didn’t brace it. I’m being more careful. No further problems.
