Picked up a used FL-165 flail mower at an auction (no brand identification on it). Got it home to find out I have a bent rotor. It looks like it could be an Ironcraft (same look and color) but there is only the serial number sticker on the machine. The Ironcraft have 24 weldments on the rotor this one has 26. So I'm wondering if it might be a Cosmo? Did Cosmo make Flail mowers for Ironcraft at some time? Anyway I'd like to get it working and will be looking for a rotor and the main bearings for it. If anyone knows a source that would have knowledge about these and their compatibility please let me know. Thanks

Maybe take the rotor to a machine shop to see if they can straighten it?

Currently at one of my local shops, just trying to have plan "B" in place.

Got a new rotor from Messicks. Apparently this was made by Caroni or at least the rotor fits. Was a bit taken back by the price until it arrived with a new set of flails. Now I have a back up set as well.
