I was doing my seasonal maintenance on a 3 year old 3620H and found both tie rod ends are loose at the ball coupling. Tractor has 250 hours and I have been relatively careful about not overloading the front end, turning to the stops and not turning while the tractor is stationary but they are still very loose. Talked with the dealer and found out this is only a 2 year warranty part and out of warranty for me. There is a beefed up factory replacement but they are $300+ per side which seems very over priced but not surprising in this current economic environment.
Has any one found an acceptable after market replacement that is less expensive? I know there have been a lot of broken parts probably from a combination of abuse and undersized design which is why the newer parts are beefed up. Thanks.
