I have a Gravely 4-wheel riding tractor, G-Series. Last summer the transmission broke, and over the winter I repaired it. One of the gears had broken and I replaced it. However, somehow (no one remembers it happening) the housing for one of the gear axles chipped off. The case is, of course, cast. But I am thinking of welding the pieces back together and them honing the inside of the housing to tolerance so that it is smooth and even. Then reassemble and install it.
My question: is this is a workable solution? Has anyone tried something like this and if so, what advice can be given? Actually, any and all input about this would be greatly appreciated.
Secondly, if this is not do-able, does anyone have a source for a new transmission case --- or even a used transmission? I might even go for a new transmission.
Third: are there any other suggested solutions for my problem?
I truly do not want to retire this wonderful tractor.
Thanks in advance for any attention to this topic.
