Repairing Allis Chalmers Power Feed Box (wagon)

hi.

I have a hard copy parts book for the self-unloading forage wagons and power feed boxes, so if you can post a pic of the parts you need, I can hopefully find the part # and Mike, myself and others might be able to come up with the parts for you.

I wonder who built them for AC. Were they a Badger built unit or something else?

Soildground, Nice older AC power feed box.
The first AC power feed silage box (supplied by Calhoun Co., Cedar Falls, Iowa) production was marketed from about 1959-1962. It was usually monted on a 7 ton gear. 1964& later Power feed boxes were built by AC at Laporte - courteous Norm Swinford's 1914-1985 AC Equipment book.
If your wagon sits on an AC running gear, it should have an ID tag located on its rear frame. If you tell me the numbers from that ID tag, I can tell you which gear it is.

IMO, your wagon’s bevel gears don’t look that bad. That looks like typical wear on bevels. If you haven’t tried running them, attach some 2040/2050?? drive chains to it’s unloader & given it a turn by pto.
Buy “A”(USA made)not “I” (Import made)replacement chain. US last longer, Import stretches quicker & wears out sprockets. Web links below.

It’s unloader chain & slats looks like it uses a common “steel detachable chain”? Maybe 55 size - 1.281” outside width.? Here’s a web link to a supplier;

ac7060 do you have a picture of the page from parts book with gears.

have card on 515366 and have a box’s different of chain 

eBay item # 313076291944, A-C Parts List Self Unloading Forage Wagon, $20

well ac7060 the bevel gears I was thinking of fit an all crop harvester but yes the cards are the index filling cards. And have one one the number you posted. And one on the chain 921052 and it’s a-2050 and on box written a farmers name and “forage box” .

Oh and the old roller chain measures a pitch of 1 1/4 inch, with a inner width of around 3/8 inch.  So that's the standard 2050, I think?
