steering shaft boot protector

[SCWOOD]

I made a guard for the rubber boot to keep it from getting ripped from thorns,briers & sticks while bush-hogging.It started out as a dust cap for a trailer hub. I made something similar for my Kubota back in 2000.I machined those out of solid aluminum bar stock and had to take the end of the shaft off to install. These covers came with new hubs I bought for a trailer that I use bearing buddy's on. That is why I don't like to throw anything away!

That's a clever method of preventing damage to the boot. :thumbsup:
