On my '09 LTS (grey) tractor, I've posted before that the wheels have become toed out on each side. The problem was that both spindles got bent over time. That's from hitting bumps, and sliding off the edge of the lawn onto sidewalk that has sunk. Anyhow, the wheels are now straight with new spindles for now. So just as a heads up for anyone with this tractor or similar, that is the fix. Keep in mind you need proper snap ring pliers for dissasembly of the wheel and top of spindle. Each spindle was $28, not including tax. I have the adjustable links on order, so that if it happens again, I wouldn't need to replace spindles, just adjust the steering in a bit. Didn't want to order them, but I'm afraid this will happen again.
