AHS 1,702 #1 Posted 5 hours ago good morning! In the front chain and sprockets section; do they make idler sprockets anymore? I checked on partstree and it said they were sold out. The part # is 93-1614. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 13,264 #2 Posted 5 hours ago Check with McMaster Carr. You will need to know what series of roller chain (40, 41, etc) you have first. Some of theirs have a ball bearing, others a bronze sleeve. Looks like yours has an "open" design ball bearing - those need a slinger installed to help keep water, snow, & dirt out. A sealed (or shielded) design is better suited for the application. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 48,278 #4 Posted 4 hours ago # 40 chain. TSC has the idler sprockets. I believe they are 1 tooth short of OEM. It was years ago but I think I had to take out a link and add a half link to make them work but they worked fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Handy Don 17,625 #7 Posted 1 hour ago Surplus Center is also a source for chain and sprockets but you’ll need to use specs instead of part numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lynnmor 9,059 #8 Posted 29 minutes ago Get the numbers and manufacturer off the side of the sprocket and do a search. I found several suppliers of farm equipment parts that had the exact sprocket for cheap. I don't have it bookmarked on this computer but I should have it available later.
