I have had no problems prior with my brakes, both work... Worked until this happened. I stepped down on the LH brake to "park" and I heard a "POP". The actuator rod end with the ball attached shot out from under the tractor. Pictures below.
Has anyone had this happen before? I have not tore into it yet to see if the actuator hung up. The brake is not dragging. It looks like the rod had been cracked for a while and finally failed. Is it possible to buy just the actuating rod only or just the entire 368293R91 assembly.
