Help with identifying yellow Post hole digger

[Osutim1]

My grandfather gave me this post hole digger quite a while back, after it froze up and he let it sit out in the elements. He passed fairly recently, and I would like to get it going again. I am leaning towards a Land Pride PD series, but that's just a guess.i have it torn down and need to order some bearings and seals and a few other items and need to figure out the brand and model if possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I guess you arnt reading any numbers off the bearings or seals?

Can't make out any numbers on them, they are in too bad of shape, I tried.

If you can give me the ID, OD and width (or height) of the bearings and seals I might be able to find them in my big cross reference books.

Maybe a Danuser or Champion?

Will do. I will get those as soon as I get home.

That box looks fairly rough shape. There is complete post hole gear box set ups out there, just a thought. I own a couple pieces of equipment from my granddad like the Deere no.15 sub-soiler and a 2 bottom 14 inch Case BER or BAR eagle hitch plow, i get it

Some of that rust remover stuff like evapo-rust might be of a lot of help on that restoration.

I have a yellow one similar to that and it's a Danuser. Here's a pic of a Danuser, but not mine.

Looks like mine.
Likely a Danuser like above.
I don’t know the brand but will look for markings if you like.

Any good bearing supply house will be able to measure those and give you the correct bearings/seals.

Kinda looks like a Danuser PhD.
It would make a positive ID if you showed the whole gearbox.
