What’s the problem with my 1978 580c tractor?

I have exactly the same issue with my 1978 580C. It could be the carrier bearings on the pivot pins. They get worn out and makes turning very hard. That’s the first place I would look for the problem. The right side bearings are gone, I think they must have worn out and broke into pieces and fell out.

What’s the problem with steering on my Tractor?

I find the wheel will just spin to the left without the tires turning. I have to jerk it to the right and back left quick to get it to turn left.
