[QUOTE="cfpinz, post: 679687, member: 2383"] I didn't quite follow all that swapping and flipping, but... Most of the basket rakes I've seen had pins with clevis pins on the bottom holding the rake wheel supports to the main frame. Hay has a tendency to build up and catch on those pins. I've helped a couple people to get rid of those pins and put either hex head or carriage bolts in their place upside down with a lock nut on top. It's not a bad idea to drill the bolt and put a cotter pin in above the nut in case it backs off. Not a fix-all, but it sure helps. [/QUOTE]
