hello... had a stub axle nut come loose on my 1610d. after pulling everything, I found the gears inside the lower and upper knuckle are in bad shape. looks like the knuckle held water in it for a looong time. These gears are unavailible according to hoye. rest of the parts needed are availible with the ecception of a sleeve and a couple of shims.($400.00 worth ) But, I question using them with the old gears.
Part# 194158-13950 splined gear for upper knuckle.
Part# 194158-14120 gear for end of stub axle.
Anyone out there that can supply these gears? New or salvage?
The old gears are not chipped but are worn/pitted pretty bad. (rounded ends on teeth) Anyone had success/longevity with repairing an axle with worn gears? Thought about checking with machine shop to fabricate new ones suspect it would cost big$$$. will do that as last resort. Purchased the tractor about a month ago. rest of the tractor appears solid. Bought as used from a john deer dealer reciept says used eguip has no warranty.
Thanks for your help/replies. Bob.
