Gehl 135 Mix-All feed grinder parts needed

[oldfarmall]

Hello-

Would anyone happen to have a Gehl 135 Mix-All feed grinder sitting in a fencerow that they would be willing to sell parts off of? I am in need of the jackshaft that runs the mixer gearbox. Previous owner ran the machine long enough with bad bearings and it ate into the shaft where the bearings ride. I know I could have it built back up and turned in a lathe, but before I go that route, wanted to see if I could find a good used one first since welding and machining is going to be time consuming. From the research I have done, the jackshaft is specific to the 135 and no other Gehl mixers. Part number is 066909.

Also looking for the dust fan side cover part number 064722.

I am located in central Wisconsin. Have tried calling a few of my regular parts yards, but had no luck. WI Tractor Parts in Black Creek had nothing. Any other places to try would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I bet that's not a real fast turning shaft so no machining necessary. Just build it up and grind it down until the bearing slips over it. The locking collar will tighten it up.

I'm of the same opinion as Flying weld it up and grind it down . We have done that on shafts that did turn relatively fast. You do have to keep checking it when you get down close and a file works for the last of it so you don't get to much off. I've done wheel bearing spindles for wagons and trailer even combine shafts.

Thanks guys! It is raining all day here, so going to work in the garage today. Will weld up the shaft. I know a friend with a lathe, so we will see if we can turn it back down to size.

Oh heck, you've got it made then!
