14 hrs in and already broke something
low

Managed to cause my first bit of damage to my MF2850E after 14hrs. Appear to have broken one of my telescopic sway bar arms while pulling a disc harrow. I assume it was from turning too sharply while pulling…which was pretty damn dumb in hindsight. Can clearly see where it rubbed my tire after breaking. Live and ya learn and ya break out your wallet. Fingers crossed it’s not too bad of a fix.
