I've got a few implements that go klunk, klunk, klunk when fully lowered, and run smooth when raised up a bit. I think it's because I'm exceeding the max angle for the drive shaft.
Does anyone know if there are different types of drive shaft joints that can handle greater angles? For example, will CV joints handle more of an angle than a conventional U joint? My shafts are all U joint today.
I can look at reconfiguring the mounts on the implements so they are farther behind the tractor to reduce the angle, but I think this is only an option with my snow blower and I'm not thrilled about the loss of maneuverability and shift in weight distribution if I do this.
Anyone have any thoughts on how the address this?
