FBA grain drill parts

Fred from MO · Apr 22, 2018

Does anyone know where you can get the metal funnel tops for an FBA grain drill. Is Deere the only option. Some of my metal funnels from the grain chute are rotted away. I am working on this grain drill. Also the grain shaft only turns about 1/4 of an inch. It binds up and blew out the side gear bearing housing. Im trying to figure out, but I believe the grain shaft should just turn freely by itself. I may take the shaft out the side of the drill to see what the issue is. I cant figure out what is binding it up.

I have one here that has had the same thing happen,, I loaned it to a friend a couple years ago, he let the drill shaft rust and stick, when he dropped the drill id blew the end plate apart,, I am going to junk it,, I would rather have a FBB to show with my 60 and occasional use,, I will see what the cups look like. The drill was in amazing condition...till it stuck and broke..If you were closer you could have the whole thing..I am in Central Ohio..and the left end is the broken one..

Are these what you're looking for? Dad's drill is long gone, I found these in the barn. I'll have to count but I think there are thirteen.

OK, just thought I could help. It was sold a long time ago and I never used myself so I didn't know what they were.

I'd take it and channel the frame to have a drill 1/2 the width of your old one. I've done this to 5 different FBs and FBAs that had broken drive gears. Sold them for a good price to food plot guys.

Started with something like this.

Ended up with one like this.
