Thank You,

[quote=&quot;admin&quot;:1v1ldupc]Dave,

You could try O'Brien County Implement, <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.obci.net/">http://www.obci.net/</a><!-- m --> [/quote:1v1ldupc]

I contacted them and they have the gear and shaft I need sitting on a shelf, I'm headed up to SD this weekend so I figured I take a short road trip over to see them Sat morning. They said they'll expect me.


[quote=&quot;admin&quot;:1v1ldupc]There is a guy on ebay that parts out tractors, and he has a 77 all stripped down and on there now.[/quote:1v1ldupc]

He must have posted after I looked the other day, defiantly has a few parts I need and can use. 

I unfortunately found a couple of small cracks in the main housing when I pulled the axles and bull gears this morning. They aren't bad but I'll have to drill and pin them followed by some tig work to keep them from getting worse. More damage from an improperly mounted loader.  <!-- s:cry: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cry.gif" alt=":cry:" title="Crying or Very sad" /><!-- s:cry: --> 

Dang, what am I going to do now that I have a reasonable excuse for another tractor?

ROAD TRIP!

Looks like it means I'll have to get the 880D parked in my father in law's barn.   <!-- s:cry: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cry.gif" alt=":cry:" title="Crying or Very sad" /><!-- s:cry: -->  <!-- s:wink: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=":wink:" title="Wink" /><!-- s:wink: --> and put the loader on it and the Trike back on the 77RC, that's what.
