Help !! 544 front axle ??

Posted by Dave From MN on March 26, 2005 at 07:05:21 from (67.2.202.62):

Mowing grass aroung the pond before it thawed yesterday and as I was mowing one side of the front end dropped into a 2 foot hole" stopped the tractor and I had to use the loader to get up and back out. Heard a slamming after wards. Looked at the front end and I can see the shiny shaft that the wide front axle pivots on where it mounts to what I believe is called a bolter. The tractor is freshly painted so I think the shaft would have been painted . It appears to have about 1/2" of shiny shaft. I looked at some at the local dealer quick and some are tight and solid , some have about 1/8" space. WHATDID I DO???? The bolster looks like it is cast. I do not want to use it till I know Dont have pic now but ythis is what I have (| 0|) think it should be tight like (|0|)
0= my front axle ,|= cast sides that the axle mounts in. Hope some one can make sense of this jibberish
