He explains the flexing geometry he thinks causes it, hand-holds a camera while dragging the mower to watch the linkage move, then tries red loctite as a fix and reports it held through mowing. Useful for 1526 owners with the same hitch-pin issue, not a general implement overview.
Posted by the Poor Mans DIY channel, an owner working through his own equipment problem in real time rather than presenting a polished tutorial.
The rear wheel flexes over uneven terrain, changing the angle of the brace and plate, which causes the nut on one side to unscrew while the other side tightens.
The owner applied red loctite, impacted the nut down tight, then mowed and reported it held, though a side cover showed slight looseness afterward.
He plans to tighten it down and weld the pin in place, and later build a bushing system into the pivot point.
