F&W 8ft Steel Star Backgear Parts needed

[TdcJD]

I'm looking for the counterweight pitman arm, brake shoe and gear cover. Also the connecting hook if you happen to have that with other parts, otherwise I could probably make my own (Parts circled in attached picture). These parts were mia when I got the mill so it would be helpful if anyone has any!

F.Y.I. i believe all the parts you need are the same as the model 7 with exception of the pitman arm.

That is good to know, thanks!

Did you find the parts you needed? I’m sure I have them if your still looking.

No not yet, all I've found is someone who will sell me a complete mill head. Which I would hate to then pick apart to complete mine

I have the connecting hook and the weight arm pivot #6. I found 2 worn out brakes but not a decent one. I’ll do a little more looking for the brake and gear cover.

A worn brake is still better than no brake!! Haha

On the brakes you have found, is it just the shoe or do you have the brake rods aswell?

I have the square shaft and the spring rod. I also found a gear cover I could probably sell.

Oh good! So what would you be asking for these parts?
