I recently ran across a 7 ft Bush Hog, but it was missing the outboard gearbox (part number 70702). I looked at several stores and they want $900 for a new one! I contacted Rotary Cutter Supply and they said they don't have a replacement gearbox for that cutter.

My questions:

1. Does anyone know where I can get a used one or replacement gearbox? For less than $500
2. Does the second gearbox have to "sync" with the input gearbox? Like getting one from Ag Supply or Ebay?

Good help is greatly appreciated!

How much do they want for the BH?
Reason I ask is it might be cheaper in the long run to just buy a decent used unit.

But if I can't get the parts reasonably priced ....... new, used, or otherwised ....... why buy it?

I would pass. Too many things to match with a replacement gear box (unless buying exact P/N) ratio, direction of rotation, blade holder mount, blade holder height, mount hole pattern (gear box to deck), height of input to output of the other gearbox, size/type of input shaft for connecting cross drive shaft.
