Old Val is coming along. I didn't expect so much work to get her serviceable! I still think I got a good deal though. What do you think? At least this repair didn't cost me money except for welding supplies. Have an awesome weekend everybody!

As a mechanical engineer that has designed off road equipment for almost 20 years I was going to type a summary about stress risers that would do crack exactly as try did caused by extended used on hard surfaces with ridgid tires. Remember you could have paid 12 to 15k then found these same cracks.

My theory on the cracks is someone dropped it off a lift…. 😂

That model New Holland was notorious for cracking out at the drive axles. The later machines that used heavier gauge steel which solved the problem. I fixed hundreds of them weld shop years ago when they were new to the market. We used 1/4" steal plate over top, which would move your wheels out a 1/2 inch. But it solved the problem.

I would definitely add the 0.250” reinforcing plates on the front frame areas.

I may be easily amused, but the upside down "This side up" amused me.

Stick welding is your out door friend! You’re doing a wonderful job getting this skid back on the farm.
