Backhoe OOPS

just replaced plastic rod end on bucket, stick control side and was moving both controls around spraying everything with lube when, SNAP. plastic rod end on swing control linkage broke, hope they have another one in stock, if not, maybe should order a case! It's a 3710 on a 3215. Aaron

Can you replace with metal? Is there an anchor pin (immovable, pivot point) that is broken, misaligned, or spring pin missing?

Wondering if you are over flexing the joystick due to another broken part?

It is also possible that this other part was over stressed when the first one was broken...

Good luck.
