| Where does a guy get parts for one? I need a couple sprockets for mine. They don't need to be new I'd be happy with good used ones. I know they made a million of these elevators so someone has to have parts |

At least you didn't get "scolded" for your O/T question  . Please try the YESTERDAYS TRACTORS site, there's a wealth of info on there for all types/brands of farm machinery

| Grinder, if you know the pitch and tooth count....maybe you could find something at Tractor Supply (they used to have some up to a certain size), or search for sprocket suppliers, various gear suppliers, McMaster Carr, Grainger, Motion Industries, MSC, . . . to name a few. |

about the only way would be to measure up the specs of yours and try a generic cross match for diameter/shaft size/chain size, etc. and go from there. ------------- http://machinebuildersnetwork.com/ |

Bush Hog ended up with Kewanee - i call and they have no parts records - could it have been marketed by them and built from someone else >? ------------- When told "it's not the money,it's the principle", remember, it's always the money.. |

On a side note, were the Kewanee elevators built better than their disks ??  |

| Any complex equipment requires timely maintenance; it depends on operation efficiency, safety, and reliability. Warranty and working only with proven suppliers give confidence to our customers in the quality and reliability of delivered elevator parts. When I had a problem, I contacted the nearest service http://https://hinchong.com/lift-maintenance-singapore/" rel="nofollow - hinchong.com . The guys had all the parts I needed to repair my elevator. It's convenient; no need to buy anything; pay, and the work is ready. |

| Also, good elevators in their time were Valley made by what is now Valmont who has moved on to bigger & better things. They definitely were heavy & built well. |
