Both bottom links on my Case IH 685 are very sloppy and I'd like to fix them. I pulled one to inspect it, and was dismayed to see that there does not seem to be a retainer clip holding in the ball, and it appears that the entire arm was manufactured as an assembly with the links not being replaceable. This suspicion is borne out by the parts breakdown not showing numbers for the balls. More disturbing is that there is no part number listed for the arm (item 2) which I suspect means that no amount of money can get ne a new one (not that I'd be likely to spend that much anyway).
Anyway, what are my choices here for fixing them? Parts breakdown and video follow.
