Re: Steering arm curls...

That was just surface rust. It was solid up to date it broke and he did a lot of parking lot turning that day. I don’t think it would have snapped rolling down road as they don’t get near the pressure of turning non moving wheels. I actually had it welded back together to get me steering around the yard while I found a replacement. Myself and my welder both noticed that the spot it broke did have a difference in material structure at that point like something was in the mix when cast. Like MR48 said he has never seen one broken me either until now and the shop guys I have worked with in past haven’t either. One of those really odd things.
