So yesterday I went by the local NH dealer and he pulled up my 30 year old Model 350 on his screen. Threw me for a loop at first as the tieing mechanism looked a lot like my Deere 24T.

Another counter clerk got involved and moved on down the page and ahah, The tieing mechanism I was looking for. Seems they list parts for the twine balers then parts for the wire balers.

Anyway, they could order the tie fingers ($52) and the shaft that connects them to the drive gears ($80). Well at those prices, I decided to replace the finger I broke and let the rest mature some more.

Can't figure part prices. Some things are cheap for what you get and some things that you wouldn't think were way up there. How's a shaft to cost $80 even if it is heat treated. If there is any machine work on it it's very little.

At least I was able to get parts. Understandably so for a tractor, but a baler; I was impressed.

So are the parts for the Ford baler interchangeable with the New Holland Baler? If so, I might be able to find a couple of old shafts that have some life left in them. I think I also may have a couple of old twister hooks that the customer wanted changed out that were still serviceable. Take a look at the shafts on it. You should be able to drive out the roll pin on the gear and turn the shafts around. If so, this would save you a few dollars on the shafts. When you put that hex key type cap screw back in, make sure the threads are clean both in the shaft and the bolts. You may want to put a drop or two (not to much) of loctite on the threads.

later days mate,
Jim

Heres some additional situations that affect the cost!

1) Imorted, or domestic
2) Steel strength
3) Distance from factory
4) Local taxation
5) How many of a specific part does dealer sell a year
6) Danger level (causes a higher/lower liability INS coverage)
7) Brand of machinery, & parts

The list goes on, & on!!!
