Ouch. Surprising failure.

Messicks has one RR axle for the B26 in stock, and it is $935 + tax and shipping.

Years ago my son in Steamboat needed to borrow our 2005 Camry. He hd a friend needing a way back from Michigan. I had a local oil change place change oil. Guy took it out, all ok. After a while son was driving out there, left to go to work on morning. Got about 3 house down the street, car quit. He started it up ran a few feet more and it quit again. Then he relized light on dash. I don't remember if it was check oil or low oil. Pushed it back home. Had repair come get it to fix it.They found no oil filter. It was a spin on. Not in drive, or along road. No oil puddle in drive. Don't know what caused it. I went ut towed it home and had an used engine installed. Talked to insurance. Adjuster accepted claim and repair bill, and my expenses to pick up was covered.

So thinking the same type for my tractor, I have also started a claim for this on my home insurance. Dealer says they work with insurance adjusters all the time. So we will see. The adjuster is already on his way to see it. Jon
Curious about your homeowners insurance, did you actually add your tractor to your policy when you bought it?

We have been with the same local agent and home owners insurances for years. At the last house and then this one. Bought the backhoe in early 2018 usedfrom same dealer, and added it to our policy early this year.

Saw that shaft listed at Meesicks and used that part number to guide the service write up tech in their system. Unfortunately they did not stock it and ordered it from Kubota. Messicks price was $865 I think on Sunday evening when I first looked. Then I saw it jumped to $935 Tuesday morning. Bummer. My dealer's estimate shows it at $925. Jon
