ADJUST WHEELS FOR CULTIVATING (See Figs. 17 and 18) • Place blocks under right hand side of tiller and remove hairpin clip and clevis pin from right hand wheel. • Move wheel outward approximately 1 inch until hole in inner wheel hub lines up with inner hole in axle. • Replace clevis pin and hairpin clip on inside of wheel and remove blocks. • Repeat preceding steps on left hand side. NOTE: In extremely rough conditions and while cultivating, the wheels should be moved outward on the axle for increased stability.

I have a FT 900 Tiller I purchased just over 1 year ago with less than 2 hours runt time. Both flanges that hold each of the wheels are now all bent and contorted from the weight of the tiller. The steel is so soft these are easily bent by hand. I need these replaced with steel that will not bend under the weight of the tiller.
Are there replacements parts for these poorly tempered steel flanges? I have included an image of the bent flanges
