I noticed a crack in the front of my motor were the enigine crank lower pulley is. Its a 62 4000 gas and the shaft going to my front hydrolic tank from the crank pulley runs threw here. The pic isnt the best and I tried to highlite it. The shaft isnt hitting the mount as it spins, but it is very close to rubbing the top of the hole. It looks like a b*tch to change since someone weilded the hydro tank supports to the bottom part of this support, cant see it in the pic. Does anyone know if this part is still available from the dealer? There isnt any tractor bone yards near me in central NY that I know of. I tried to send a link. I hope this worked. thanks for any info you guys may have. JohnG

A good welder can weld that up. A friend has a 4000 Industrial that was all cracked up and we took it off and had it welded. It was over a year now and no breaks yet. He lifts alot of 16' pine logs with it.

Guess what you just broke. The same part I've been chasing for the last few weeks. It is called an axle support or possibly a front Bolster. You have several options.
1: Junk the tractor.(Just kidding!) (I almost considered it after the third part didn't work..) 2: Call around to all the tractor boneyards you can and try to find a good one. It is the same part on NAA (Jubilee) up through the 600/800 series up to the 2000 you own. If you have a normally mounted loader, you will need the one that has threaded mounting holes for the loader. It also should have a reinforcement plate welded underneath that includes the two holes in the rear. My loader has two support rods that go to these two bolts from the loader mounting plate. The price quoted me for a used one varied from $110 - $200. If you can get the folks to take a digital pic of the mount and send it to you, and have them check the threads for the pin with a new pin, you might get a good one. Option three: Purchase a new one from the sponsors here for $265. part number is S- 61616 I beleive. HOWEVER:WATCH OUT!!!!! !!
There are a bunch of aftermarket ones out there where the assembly tolerances added up so poorly that you cannot fit the loader driveshaft in place once you have fought the poor fit to attach the piece to the motor. I purchased one locally with the same part number and had to return it. The local vendor tried the rest of the ones he had on an engine and found out each one was junk.

Option four.. If your part is still good other than the cracks, weld it up. I have been told they don't weld well, so it might crack again quite quickly.

Option five. Order an original thru your local Ford dealer. I was quoted $1200 for it.

Option six.. Make your own. It'd be quite the project, but you certainly could improve on the strength of the factory part. The threads for the pin will be the hardest part.

If you have the axle pin with the hex head replace it with the same pin. If you have the one which tightens up against a snap ring, get the Heavy duty pin and the retainer for it. There's a LOT of weight hanging on those two holes.

Just needed to clarify.. The Jubilee may or may not have a threaded pin installed.Many out there have later supports installed. Don't even bother to use a non threaded support if you have a loader, as it will break.
