yes but it is 100% repaired, (better than new I might add) and the lower bracket repainted where the paint cracked as it was making a pretzel of the rod. So now I still am waiting on the first bad thing :laughing::laughing:
I haven't had that happen to me, but managed to put nearly a right-angle bend in the rod above the tube by snagging a tree branch while backing up with the bucket fully-curled. I hate it when that happens!
