Of course, Plow Day is in 3 days, and the 782D just threw another spirol pin.  Don't know if I have another spiral pins and bushings to fix this before Sat.  Not sure why this happens yearly....
Jeff in PA and Sam Mac, is there a replacement driveshaft option for the GT diesels with the NON-splined input shaft? I'd love to buy a kit to replace everything, but I have a feeling you'll tell me that I need a splined input shaft. With a splined input shaft, what combination of parts can Jeff in PA provide, and what do I need to make it work? I don't have any stuff to do fabrication work, so a plug-and-play option is what I'd like.
Can you guys help me fix this permanently? Thanks! |
I make a replacement hub for the hydro with set screws. That would help on that end and I can make the hub by the engine with set screws too.
If you go to the link Sam posted and go to page 5, those are the hubs I make that John got his 1512.
