I might need one of those also. Mine has a huge bracket welded on the end. Not sure what I'm going to find when I cut it off.

I'm pretty sure mine came off a Toro snowblower.

Well I’ll be darned .. I was actually looking at a similar one from a zero turn mower.. thank you for showing me that...
My question is: what did you do about bearings? Mine looks to like I’ll have to use sealed bearings and that is bushed...doesn’t look to have enough diameter to be able to put bearings in?

Karen,

I remember that Farmer Weld, this bike was my buddy Charlie's and he got it that way. I wondered what is behind door #2 also
Best options for the front rim/tire is from Honda 3 wheeler as far as replacing the hogged out tire/rim combo.
Later,
Keith

I just used a steel shaft, figuring the bushing and grease should suffice, on a low-use unit like mine will be. I'll add a triangle plate as an outer support, too. It's not "ideal" but I'm doing a freer-running CVT setup on the second machine for speed work.

I've got one of those sprockets in a parts bin. I'll look for it today after work. And post pictures.

This is what I have... It did come off an El Burro.
Has #35 on the engine side and #40 on the rear sprocket side.

5/8" space between the two.
