WE BOUGHT A DEERE 450E A FEW MONTHS BACK. 1ST PIECE OF LARGE EQUIPMENT. AFTER BUYING IT WE NOTICED THAT SOME OF THE BOLTS THAT CONNECT THE SIDE RAILS TO THE FINAL DRIVE CASE ARE STRIPPED AND CHAINS HAVE BEEN WELDED TO HOLD THE FRAME TOGETHER! YOU CAN SEE THE CHAINS IN THE PICTURE BELOW THE FLOOR BOARD. SEEMS TO BE HOLDING FOR THE TIME BEING BUT LOOKS LIKE I WILL HAVE TO SOMEHOW RE-TAP THE HOLES A POSSIBLY REPLACE THE SIDE RAILS. THE PROBLEM IS THOUGH THAT WHEN YOUR DRIVING FORWARD, THE MACHINE KINDA ROCKS FROM SIDE TO SIDE. NOT VIOLENT OR ANYTHING BUT LIKE A WEEBLE WOBBLE. THE FASTER YOU GO THE FASTER IT WOBBLES. WHAT'S CAUSING THIS? IS THE FINAL DRIVE WARPED OR SOMETHING? MY DAD AND I HAVE BOTH WATCHED AS IT IS DRIVEN AT A CRAWL AND NOTHING IS VISIBLY MOVING THTA WOULD CAUSE THE WOBBLE. :Banghead
