How about a good machinist? Just a thought. |

I did think about that - but we don't have time for the machining, hard chrome, centerless grinding etc.. |

Olger, we were the other shaft failure in the history of the machine! We had our part machined, took several days but worked fine after the repair. Good luck. |

Caddis - thanks for the info. Is your machine a full MH (3000psi @ 45 lb. per minute?) Where did your shaft break - at the lower threads? I am told a week to machine a new one. g |

Problem solved. Rob Crawford from MCC Equipment in Indianapolis had the complete hydraulic cylinder and shaft assembly. $2100 but it will be worth it. Also had a local machine shop in Dayton make a replacement shaft out of billet - take them about a week to get it completed and hardchromed and ground. At least we'll have an extra one, now. Thanks for the suggestions, g |
