Hi guys, I needs the steering gearbox for my 52 Allis-Chalmers WD. I only needs the gearbox with nothing in it like shafts or gears. My problem is that mine have 8 bolts broken in it including the 3 in the front for the wide front. If anyone knows were I can get one or have one please tell me. I would like to have it shipped in Madawaska, Maine.
Thanks for any help

I had seven broken and two of the front end bolts stripped. I was able to get all seven broken studs taken out and I used helicoils on the two that were stripped on the front end bracket. The front end works great. Net time about 4 hours and cost $10.

I got most of the broken studs by welding another stud to the broken one. The heat of welding loosened them up. All but one came out that way. That one had to be drilled out and retapped.

I believe they will go in about 1". When you drill them, you'll be able to figure that out when the small bit goes through. It may be helpful to drill a hole through dead center of each stud. Then weld on a stud.

You've already decided to scrap the unit so you don't have anything to loose except your time. I'd start on the side studs first. Pick the one that has the most sticking out for your first experiment. Do all the ones on the sides before you tackle the front ones. They will be the toughest - an experienced mechanic will be helpful - you because you've done five others. Also, if you don't get a couple of those side ones, it isn't a great issue. When I got my WD, it only had three in it, one on one side and two on the other. Two of those three broke off anyway.
