I think if you can't find a new one, I would find a new splined hub and make a whole new plate to weld the hub on. Cut a circle the diameter of the outside of what you have. Measure the distance from the center to the bolt holes and drill 3 new holes in the plate. then center the new splined hub and weld it on. A friend with a lathe would be a big help centering and welding things straight would be a big help. I would think any machine shop that does jobber work could make that fairly cheap if you don't know anybody with a lathe. The reason I say steel is just because it's cheaper and easier to weld the hub on. I wouldn't worry about using steel being to strong that something else might break, that is the purpose of the rag joint, to break before anything else does. The broke part you have looks like a very poorly made home built piece anyway. looks like they did essentially the same thing, welded a hub to a plate but instead of drilling holes in the plate they welded the pipes or bushings (or what ever you want to call them 3 things) to the outside of the plate. I think the hub could be purchased at a farm supply or hydraulic parts store. If not i think any machine shop could get one for you. My guess is if you hire a shop to make one it would be over $100 but less then $200, but you might want to get a estimate first.</p></blockquote><p></p>
