Isn’t there usually a U-joint in between? Something to fail other than expensive splines?

It came found to actually the amount of use, make, cost.
Mig + bottle $2000+13%tax.
Granted I can hire out to get my welding down, but now I can repair everything under 3/8" with this set up.
I have a Lincoln ARC welder for heavy-duty stuff.
Good to know that you've had good luck with the Hobart.
Thanks

Now a days I have my MIG welder and my Miller AC/DC TIG welder for alum. and stainless steel . It's not getting much use currently due to my old body and age BUT it's there when I need it !

I got the tractor in, took the front off the loader. Got the pump and shaft out.
The shaft looks like a 12 inch 3/4" extension.
The splines on the end that connects to the motor side are stripped. The pump end is pretty well toasted as well.
Not looking good for the repair end.
Cessna pump = obsolete = aftermarket and the price is crazy.
(US price/exchange/tax/tarriffs/duties)
Then the shaft, and probably the part that bolts onto the motor.
Start calling the tractor bone yards

Besides the tractor loader pump news.
I managed to use the skidsteer to load the dump truck.
Got 5 loads of pretty good looking stuff transferred over to the new composting/staging area.
I decided on the area for the Asparagus patch. So I put the forks on the skidsteer and ripped up the sod.
Tomorrow I'll remove it and start bringing in the soils.
