I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to make chain drive sprockets for a max II and where would I get a sprocket with a 1"1/4 center hole with 52 teeth. All my sprockets are in need of replacing.
Looking for parts to fix my maxII

You buy a generic sprocket and bore the hole larger.....BTW 1 1/4" is your axle size, and will be the inside diameter of the tube you weld the sprocket to.
52 teeth on a sprocket???? Max never had that. Normal was 22 teeth on the axles (MaxII w/ #50 chain). If you are looking for gear reduction, you can't do it on the axles, you will need to change it on the jack-shaft.

Jim I'm guessing he now has 40 chain, if so now is the tome to upgrade to 50 chain.
You can go with 1-1/4 inside 1-1/2 outside tubing and buy 1-1/2 bore sprockets 22 tooth
Check with Buffalo Bearings...I think I got mine from there...Either that or it could have been Tractor Supply co.
it seems that the wall thickness is .12 while the original sprocket tubes are closer to .20 will that matter?
We sell Sprockets at Tractor Supply ! I work for one. There in the PTO section.
I think I have a complete set of 50 sprockets laying around. I'll sell them for $35 a sprocket.
l like to buy stuff and no I don't do payments!
Is that for the cluster sprocket also? Used ? I am in the process of figuring out how much to spend to keep my max at #40 sprockets or upgrade to #50 looks like I can buy 2 feet of tube and 6 #40 Sprockets and 2 #50 sprockets for about $150 all together-then I have to weld them up I think it would be about another $25 bucks to go with #50 sprockets but then I have to order 50 feet of #50 chain.This is with all the sprockets coming from surplus supply I can get 1.50 O.D. x 1.25 I.D. Tube 2 feet for $20 at metal mart.I would rather just buy new original sprockets but Richard relics wants $75 per cluster sprocket and $50 per single axle sprocket.
That's $35 per good used original ri cluster. Anything but the jack shafts.
