WTB bobcat 642b parts

Marcus said:

jeepcreepcj, I'm just wondering on how your project is coming along? I have just bought a 624b for a project also. Have you found the parts you need yet?

No, I have not found the parts that i need yet. When i bought the loader, the missing parts were supposed to have been included but were not with the loader at the shop. I was supposed to be able to get them later, but its been over 2 months now, and my calls don't get returned. The engine was out and in pieces, and i tried to have it rebuilt but couldn't find a useable crank for less then $900. So I bought a kubota diesel that was supposed to be a good runner, and found out it wasnt, but after some work and more money i have got that running. Currently I am planning to swap the kubota into it. It would be easy if i had the original fan, yoke and u joint. I could simply bolt that to the kubota flywheel after having it machined, and make a motor mount. Then with some rewiring and what not i might have a runner, but I have been making no progress without the fan and coupler. I cant really make the motor mount without knowing where it will sit when coupled. I hope your project goes better than mine!

Do you have the measurements for the U-Joint? Let me know those and I can see about getting you one. I don't know how long it will take me but its worth a shot. Its not something we have got into yet but we have purchased one for small repair job.

Yeah, bobcat numbers dont really help me at this point because its not something we have researched at this time. I know its on our list of things to do. That is why I was wanting the measurements, I would have a better chance. Sorry

Thanks to everyone for your help. I have the parts I need! I got them from Hess brothers in indiana. They happen to have just got a 642b in when I called. They shipped everything up to me right away. I would highly recommend them if anyone is having trouble finding used parts. I will hopefully have it going this week, maybe even tomorrow night!
