Sometimes the end can come quickly

I was out combining today, thinking how much fun I was having, crop was clean and dry and going through good. Then bang! The crankshaft that drives the straw walkers snapped. Going to hire the rest harvested. Not sure if I can even get a part for this old combine . A picture just before the end.

Going to see if the 851 pull type has the same guts as the 850. If it does, might be in luck and come up with the parts.

There are a lot of MF 850s salvaged around here. The separating system is the same. I have done some work on a MF 851.

Bruce from Can. · Sep 19, 2019

This is good to know the inside is the same. We can start in after corn silage and pull it apart. Maybe it won?t be the end for my old 851 after all. Just the end for this season.

If you need I could check with the, they have a lot of Massey parts, might even have a new one. Their number is 763 689 1179. They might not ship it as the new tax laws are making that tough, but if they have it I would ship it to you.

All States Ag Parts is the largest supplier of used and remanufactured combine parts in North America. 10 Salvage yards, 13 locations. One of their salvage yards is about 20 miles from me. Awesome. 1-877-530-4430. Good Luck.

Might want to try MM Weaver in Leola, PA. Not sure how much used stuff they have anymore. Spallinger in Ohio. Abilleen Machine in Kansas. Probably some pretty nice stuff going to parts due to the last grain boom having guys updating machines. Used to be a few nice MF machines around this area. I don't think that the 850/1 were especially noted for broken cranks so there should be one out there to get.

Blankety blank auto-correct. That should be Abilene.

There's another combine salvage yard on the West side of Indiana SR 27 between Fort Wayne and Portland that I always see on the way to Portland. Mailing address is probably Berne, IN. Looked like they had all different colors there.

Leroy · Sep 20, 2019

I have delt with Spallinger many a time. One of 2 places that kept me going.

Leroy · Sep 20, 2019

That is at Bryant and is way to far away to have a Berne mailing address. On In 67, 18 and US 27 intersection. Around 30 mile west of me. Berne is quite a ways north of Bryant.

Neighbour has a wrecked 850 in his yard. If you wish, I could ask about parts.

Obviously in Kansas, but you can try Mike's Equipment in Buhler, KS. He has many combines of all persuasions. Google him. He should have the part. Good luck - Bob
