Parts needed for Wheel-horse c-160

[tractorman99]

Hi everyone,

I bought a wheel-horse c-160 a while back, and did some work with it.
One day the rear axle housing broke:


I was thinking about changing the part or soldering the broken pieces.
Does anyone know where to order this part? Or has any idea of the potential cost of a soldering job?
Thank you in advance!

It looks like the wheel hub broke. That's a lot easier to replace. There was a guy in maybe Pennsylvania that has a huge GT salvage yard.

Rich is correct, a simple hub replacement needed. Source a used replacement....shouldn't be hard to find at all. Looks like you lost the key also. Looks like on the right side of that break that it's been cracked halfway through for a while as it's rusty on the outside edge of the busted area.

Solder would certainly not be strong enough for that

Yep, solder is barely a notch above bubble gum for that application.

All great ideas, replacing the part was easier! Ordered it from a-z parts, pensylvania's a long way from canada Lol

Sorry! There's no way to know where anyone is from on here.
