need help identifying grain drill and finding gears

rdinky1 · Jun 19, 2015

hi ,
First post here! I have a john deere grain drill that the right side gears stripped. i pulled the left side to try to find replacements , but so far the place i've looked are asking so much to make them that i don't think i'll be able to afford to fix it . i'm not sure what model it is , i think it's a 1940 something model. any inf o on the drill , parts, or where to look would be appreciated .. i'll try to attach pics ...

thanks in advance !

I'm guessing model EE. Those gears might still be available from Deere!

I had the same thing as you, I welded them and ground them down and worked good until I found another drill for parts. That one you have is a EE, and the F models have the same gears. Now I always turn the shaft with a wrench before I use it. Good luck Gordy

I agree it looks like a model EE. The parts list for EE is in a book that's about the same thickness as an old Sears catalog. Do the gears have any casting numbers?
