Replacement Parts for Case IH Deer Drills
New 2-piece replacement parts for Case-IH and Deere grain drills make repairs quick and easy by eliminating the need to disassemble the machine to install them.Sand Iron & Steel, Inc. recently introduced a replacement trunion and arockshaft bracket replacement.
Ordinarily, to replace worn trunions on Case-IH and Deere press drills, you have to almost completely dismantle the drill. Sand Iron's 2-piece replacement simply bolts onto the current shaft and is ready to go in minutes. Sells for $20. "Worn trunions allow uneven pressure on disc openers which leads to poor seed placement. Making it easier to replace them means you can keep your drill in top operating condition all the time," says Bill Sand, owner.
Worn rockshaft brackets on Case-1H drills also affect planting accuracy, resulting in seed depth variations of up to 1/2 in. But to replace a worn center bracket, you have to disassemble the shaft. Sand Iron's bracket bolts in place around the shaft once you cut away the old bracket. Sells for $29.95.
