Southern Illinois | Well I got the parts ordered this morning, new shaft and all. The same part number fits the 10, 20, 5, 15, 25, 8530, 8630, 8730. I don't know what caused it. There is a dark area a little less than half the thickness from one side but it seem to stop within the outer 1/4". Maybe the outer surface is hardened or rockalized? Anyway makes me think I've been driving on a cracked axel for a while. One guy I talked to said "Oh yeh, Massey's used to break right there at the bearing shoulder too." |
