I purchased a '78 K2 Corn/Soybean Special a couple years ago, that came with a grain head. This spring I acquired a low profile black A330 corn header, from a gentleman who had used it on multiple K2's for his test plot business. I assumed these would be similar vintage and align.....I discovered that the sprocket on the cylinder drive shaft on the combine is about 1" off to align with the innermost sprocket on the corn header. Any advice?  |

You need the double 13 tooth sprocket on the thresher countershaft - will try to get pn tomorrow. ------------- When told "it's not the money,it's the principle", remember, it's always the money.. |

A double sprocket was what I was suspecting... I've got parts books and manuals I've been researching- are both sprockets the same size- 13T? For a K2? I've got a parts book that shows an inner 13 tooth sprocket and an outer 25 tooth sprocket, for a K2. Thanks!
