I have this Kubota B6000E that I'm waiting on the steering bearings, seals etc to come in so I can rebuild this box and get it back moving. When I took out the shaft it appeared to be in good condition but today when I took the box off of the tractor I noticed the sector shaft has a couple chips in it. This shaft new is $2000 (no typo) and I don't think I'll be able to find it used as they sell the whole boxes and won't sell the shaft by itself.
My thought is that if I replace the bearings etc I should be able use it like this. But I was hoping you tractor folks much smarter than me would please give me your opinion on whether I'm wasting the bearings and seals by trying to use this shaft or whether you think that I'll be fine replacing that and using this shaft.
Thanks in advance
