My 30 year old John Deere 180 needs an axle for the right side. I would be interested in a complete transmission, differential, right axle, ect. The key way is about 2 times as wide as it should be. This is a geared mower, NOT a hydro. It is a friend of the family and I do not want to abandon the poor thing. If anyone has parts for the 180 please respond. Thanks in advance!!!

I see they get 100 dollars for a new axle. That isn't that bad of a price and the tractor should well be worth that amount of money. If the axle is bad what shape is the wheel? It would be less work replacing the whole unit and it might be easier finding a complete unit then just a used axle. A machine shop can also put a new key slot in your old axle. When I was still working one of the places I worked had a tool to do that. not a bad job to do.
