[AT] 504 Farmall bearing cage

[farmall36 at vci.net]

 Sledride,  I called them this morning and they said they would try to find 
one and call back. I was hoping that someone had an old 340-504 parts 
tractor laying around. None of the local tractor boneyards had either of 
these tractors. I carried it to the local machine shop this AM and he said 
he could not make one. Only setup for engines, in the AM im going over to 
Dawson Springs where I know they can make one.
I think that I can make one myself, if I can find a pipe 5" out side that 
the bearing will fit in. A 3/8" plate and a1/4" plate for the top then just 
true everything up and weld it together. Biggest problem is going to be 
finding the 5"OD pipe the will accept the bearing on the inside.
I guess I need a lathe Need need need is what I do most , well hunting for 
tools ect. I keep tools in the shop and 4 other buildings, if I put them all 
in the shop I couldnt find anything either as it is loaded already.
Thanks for the info sledride.
