Is it possible to rebuild a transmission housing out of a 8070 FWA? The hole where the main shaft is wore pretty bad, my dads thinks it can be rebuilt cheap, I dont. Any opinions? ------------- 8070FWA,7080 BlackBelly, 7045,2 200s,D19,D17,G, WD,45,UC,7 AC mowers and lots more! "IT TAKES 3 JD's TO OUT DO AN ALLIS, 2 TO MATCH IT IN THE FIELD AND 1 FOR PARTS!" |

Im not familair with that case, but anything can be built up by welding and remachined, or bored oversize and sleeved back to original size. ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |

A $1,000 or so, if it can be redone. ------------- 8070FWA,7080 BlackBelly, 7045,2 200s,D19,D17,G, WD,45,UC,7 AC mowers and lots more! "IT TAKES 3 JD's TO OUT DO AN ALLIS, 2 TO MATCH IT IN THE FIELD AND 1 FOR PARTS!" |

If you have a flat surface to locate on, another surface to square off from and enough of the bore left to find the original centerline, you could probably get it done for that.

| That estimate seems reasonable, now finding a good shop to do the work? Have you tried locating a good used housing? That is easier said then done I realize.GL. |

We already put a used housing on the tractor, I think its a waist having the tihing sit around taking up space but hate seeing it go to china since they probably dont make it anymore. ------------- 8070FWA,7080 BlackBelly, 7045,2 200s,D19,D17,G, WD,45,UC,7 AC mowers and lots more!
