Jinma 254 -- Broken front axle support seat

[cedarparker]

Hope y'all had a nice Christmas.

Has anyone ever experienced a broken front axle support seat? I've read about a lot of ways to break a front axle but never seen this before... it's a beefy casting to break like that.



I think I got off light, even though I used the tractor for awhile with this piece busted. Besides the support seat itself, there's damage to the bushing in the rear support seat, and the snap ring and all six balls that couple the drive shaft to the axle are gone. And the rear cover plate is broken, and a few O-rings and gaskets need renewing. The axle itself seem OK.



Here's a picture of the rear support seat; the bushing is pretty trashed.

Does anyone know if this bushing can be replaced, or do I need a whole new rear support seat?



Thanks
Jeff

ON EDIT -- title is wrong, it's a Jinma 284, not 254. Sorry.

Yes, you do, sort of. I'm on my way to the Bellville store now.
