I just bought a Deere 2440 with low hours and it has a 146 loader that they used to push snow.They scraped their driveway with the bucket strait up and down and caught something with the cutting edge twisting one side of the loader up about 2-3 inches. They even pushed the bucket stops slightly up into the arms on both sides. I can find no cracks or broken welds on the frame or the front tube. How do I straiten it? Should I chain the high side to the floor in the shop and jack the other side up? What about putting the lower side on blocks and have a neighbor with a big track-hoe push down on the high side? The tractor has side frames but putting as much force as will be needed scares me with thoughts of breaking the plate on the rear of the engine(I have seen them broke before).I could remove the loader but not sure how then to work on it. Thanks for any ideas or experience with this problem. Tom

And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
