Looking for a part for my rotary cutter - 2102-N - Auburn Gear

[BRYBURTON]

I have an older rotary cutter. I don't see a brand name, but it has the following ID:
T 660 LT
T816/443B

The Gear Box says "Auburn Gear" 2102-N

So the question.....where can I find the part in image 002?

The plates around the middle plate are not spinning with the PTO shaft. It looks like I could weld the 3 plates together. But I assume it would be best to replace if possible.

Thanks,

That is a slip clutch. It appears to be a belleville spring style. I would try tightening the nut on the back between the gear box and the clutch. If that does not work I would remove the clutch from the gear box and disassemble it to see if it has friction material in it. If it does most likely worn out.

Thanks, yes I know nothing. So it is slipping. I removed it. It looks like there were 2 gaskets in there and they have both deteriorated. There are 4 bolts attaching it and 1 was missing.

I am thinking that those "gaskets" are actually friction material (like whats on brake pads).

Ok, so since they are gone...it's toast?

Measure your old disks and call these people they may be able to help you.

If the slip disc carrier or holder is damaged they may also be able to provide a completely new slip disc clutch assembly.

Nobody mentioned this, but you really do need that slip clutch, and operating correctly. If it is too loose, it slips, if it is too tight, then it doesn't protect what it is designed to protect... which is the expensive stuff in the rear part of your tractor! It needs to slip when you hit something like a rock, a tire, a piece of carpet, an engine block or maybe a well head... take you guess on what you will find thrown out in the bushes on property!

Once they are replaced and the nut is tightened enough then your good.

You guys are awesome. I ordered two discs from qualityfarmsupply. I need a new bolt. Would it be ok to replace them with stainless? None of them had locknuts, but they were cinched down pretty good / hard to remove.

 

[BRYBURTON]

Got it all back together thanks to you guys. Hopefully it actually works.

Breaking the nut was a real pain in the sack. I had to put the clutch back on the gear box, then I used a ratchet strip to keep the blades from turning.

I used my big a channellocks and a 4 ft cheater bar to break it (broke my ratchet strap first). Retied the ratchet strap and eventually broke the nut.

Took it all apart, added two discs, and put it back together. Procured 4 new bolts from the Lowes.
