I took my busted 284 front axle to the nearest Farm Pro Dealer who recommended I would be better off purchasing a new axle rather then trying to repair the differential box and axle. The axle arrived a week later(yesterday) and it was obvious when uncrated that this axle was not new but had certainly been used. I spent the afternoon retightening and replacing pieces from my old axle onto the one sent from Homier. I mounted the axle before realizing this axle does not rotate properly and exhibited the same symptoms as the old axle. I pulled it back off of the tractor and pulled the differential cover to reveal the spider gears in the axle from Homier have several broken gears. I have been trying to reach either my dealer or Homier since yesterday. The dealer will not return my calls and Homier Farm Pro has kept me on hold for three hours this morning. Does anybody have any contacts with either Poor Man's Tractor in N.Augusta SC or Homier Farm Pro in Indiana? I will be glad to keep you posted on what kind of customer service solves this problem. You can e-mail me at wfree@hotmail.com.
