new holland 202 spreader parts???

[tmorg1220]

i just purchased a N.H. 202 manure spreader. all that is missing is a gear sprocket, One of the idle ones, part # 36518. i found out today that almost no parts are avalible for this spreader. I've tried all the salvage yards that I could find on the web but no luck. Can anyone help me?

Fashion a half moon wooden block out of hardwood (5"x2"x2"). Drill a hole in the center. use as an idler. AGCO's old Gleaner combines use a couple different sizes if you are not handy.

On the flip side if you have the part or know the center diameter as well as the chain size and how big of a diameter you can use you possibly find an alternative part theat might work from another piece of equipment.

The wood blocks might take the load or they might not. They to were used by nearly every manufacturer at one time or another.
