Mowing Bush Hog wheel falls off

[k0ua]

Well you are going to love this.. on the JD site,, there were 3 versions. of tail wheel retainer.. Version 1. a washer that is plug welded to the tailwheel support... Man that sucks.. version 2.. a hole thru the tail wheel support and a washer and a cotter pin. and version 3 with a groove in the tail wheel support and a circlip.

and I do greatly appreciate all the input, I tried figuring it out off the JD website, and said forget that pretty quickly, LOL from the amount of crap in the groove, I'm thinking there hasn't been a clip in some time. Will be going to town later and getting the part.
