The right axle on my M is a little sloppy...meaning the tractor has been operated with the wheel nut loose and the axle splines and presumably the wheel hub are worn.

I would like to fix it, but I'm not sure that replacing the axle will take out all the play. The wheel is probably also out of tolerance.

Is there any way to fix this short of scrounging a new set of wheels in good shape? My first thought would be to remove the axle and have the splines welded up and reshaped to make them oversized enough to take up the slack but I don't know if anyone can do that type of work.

Has anyone fixed a problem like this? What does it take? Thanks...BB

As an alternative, give some thought to getting another final from a parts tractor and swapping finals. The swap is not difficult and you will get a chance to check your brake on the side you swap.

Good point...I know of a parts machine I can get pretty reasonable, but I guess my underlying assumption is that the splines are most likely worn on those too. Anyway, your fix is probably the simplest. Thanks for the help...BB

Bama,

The axle isn't very long only a couple of inches. Theres a little plate on the final drive. If you take that plate off than you can pull the axle. You can most likely bring it down to a machine shop and have a replica made. For the wheel you maybe will have to get a new one.
