Why would anyone do something like this?
Here's the other side of the hitch mounting pin.
These photos are of the atrocity on the back of a 753 that I recently brought out of mothballs, did some repairs to it, and now it is running like new again....except that I can't pull anything with it due to the unbelievable act perpetrated on it by a P/O. Before I attempt anything at all in an effort to remove the rusted-in-place portion of the hitch mounting pin, what would be the best plan of attack? I surely don't want to break the transaxle housing by applying too much force or trying something more brutal to get the remains of the pin out of there. Suggestions anyone?
