Problems with Tie Rod Bushings

It appears that I need new bushings that elevate the tie rod and keep it from laying on the feet rests. Mine lays on the foot rest but I can lift it up to a position where i think is should be. The rubber bushings that are on both ends of the tie rod seem to have worn completely away. Any one know where i can get them or any one have any tips on how to correct this problem???

You can adjust the tie rod so it doesnt rest on the metal foot rest. I usually adjust both ends so they support the center rod. The rubber bushings are not needed, but you can use cut heater hose if you want them.

      Hello glad I got on this site. I hope to upload a couple of photos of my Simplicity Broadmoor 
      Model 707 Tractor. I have replaced all the belts on it and installed a new ignition switch.
      Have a mower deck which was in poor shape , repaced a couple of bushings and welded the
      deck where there was some holes. The tractor and mower deck came from a friend and the 
      mower deck metal was getting pretty thin. Some new metal was put in it and we also undercoated the underside of the deck. This was done by my friend Greg Toulman.
      I have not put the mower deck on the tractor yet, waiting for Greg to come home and give me a hand. Can you please tell me if there is a manual for the mower deck and where I could get one.
      I would also like to get some moon wheel discs as well.
      I will try and down load some photos of the tractor when my wife shows me how to. 
      I really love driving this tractor and also how well it is made compare today's tractors, especially the flexible rear end and the rollers.
      Tell the next time 
      Paul
