Or call Shoup's. They will gladly custom make one. Needed the same part for my Ford 224 (bit bigger than your Dearborn), was NLA from New Holland. Shoup's had it made and to my door within 3 days.

Buy a piece of 1" shaft and weld the threads from a 1" bolt on the end. It doesn't have to be perfectly concentric as it's just slow speed. Clamp the two pieces in an angle iron with a 1/8" gap and weld it up. [Reply]  [No Email]

Most machine shops are looking for work. Richard in NW SC [Reply]  [No Email]
