Title: 38 Ton Shay Gearbox Housing
Post by: TrailsideGguy on January 31, 2023, 12:08:00 PM

Like many other shay owners the rear gearbox housing on mine is toast. The plastic replacements are sold out. I see a metal replacement gearbox part. Is the replacement an exact fit?

Also, the plastic bottom plate I have is still good. Will that fit the replacement metal housing? The replacement metal bottom plate is over twice the price of the metal gearbox (what's up with that?) so I'd like to use what I have.

Yes, that's it. How can I pay you for the cost and shipping?
