58 I been thru that nut roll. I did a bunch of figuring using the dimentsions in the McMasterCarr catalog to try to find a substitute. First off that is not a standard U Joint and trying to substitute always came up with not enough room either length wise or in diameter to get one to fit in there. If it were not for the welded on steering wheel, you would be in business. I know of two people who make/rebuild them. I got one that was remade after I sent the machinest the core that I had. Problem you will not have the piece that the steering wheel normally slips on and bolts to. If you go to johnnypopper board the last name of the man that made mine was Coy, you may get a hit by doing a search there. Also, a while back I talked to Dave Cook 715-373-2092 he said that he had his shop figured a way to rebuild that little monster that you have. There again, you have the challenge of not having a complete core. Anyway, Dave might be able to conjure up something depending on how much you gotta hack off to the get the old weld off and your joint taken out. Dave specializwes in Dubuque stuff and his neighbor John Shepard does also If you would be able to find a needle in a haystack and locate a used one it will be super expensive since those things are made out of unobtanium. Yep quite a feat of engineering - it only took one year for Mother deere to figure out that was a monstrosity. But I do like to sport my slanted wheel and the new U Joint that Mr Coy made for mine. Good Luck
