Hello,
I have a Simplicity Prestige 2004 era. I was mowing recently when all of the sudden my front wheels went in opposite directions. I took it in and was told I had a broken steering spindle. I would like to repair this myself and have found the parts I need, however that's where the issue is. I found the parts diagram and it shows the part held together with a bolt from the top. However the actual part on my mower appears to be welded. My question is can anyone give me a hint on how to take this spindle out? I have attached a photo of my actual part (crudely circled in purple) and the diagram showing the bolt from the top.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
