KL451 Loader Bearing Box Repair?

[billboe]

Hi All,


I had a pivot pin come loose (see 1st photo) which caused (I presume) the ?bushing? to break on the bearing box (see 2nd & 3rd photos). This is a DK45s with the KL451 loader.


My question is whether the bearing box can be repaired (by a good welder?) or do I need to replace the whole shebang?


Either way it is a good/expensive lesson to watch for loose/broken bolts, etc...


THANKS!
