Replacement Parts
They don't have any thing stock that's similar enough to suffice? Whatta ya mean vehicle, I thought this trans was for a waterwheel setup your making down by the creek in your backyard,wink wink.
I fully agree, I can't believe we live in a country where lawsuits are so prevalent that this could even be an issue, worst still that wasn't the only place that I got the exact same response from, 3 of 4 (with the 4th pricing me $900) came back with the same exact lawyer disclaimer (we can not make your part it is for a vehicle BS)
Thus from that day on like JoeMeg said I simply do not mentioned what the part is far only the specifications.
I have found a good deal of 12 tooth gears with very similar dimensions (but not quite), but it seems the 13 tooth is completely non existent in anyone's line up period )-:
Still waiting to hear back from Whipper-AG I sent him a PM and an email no response as of yet.
I'm going to stay away from welding it back together. These gears are notoriously frail, if they shatter when completely fresh and in good shape I doubt any weld will hold. Not to mention the fact the weld would have to fit in the keyway somehow.
It is rather frustrating. I recall spending months trying to figure out what was wrong with my Predator 460 only to have a Predator dealer look at it and tell me he couldn't figure it out either, I bought a new one and moved on. The fact I can't just "buy" a solution (for less than a considerable portion of the machines worth) is very aggravating to say the least combined with the fact this isn't like trying to find spare parts for a Quadractor or a Pengor Penguin. This tranimssion was in mass production for decades. Somewhere a box of thousands of these gears are just collecting dust.
allwheel, i agree .... that gear is sitting somewhere in a box or on a shelf... how to track it down ? could it have been used in some other kind of machinery ,etc. also ? i wish i could suggest a place to advertise a wanted notice. keep at it though, it will appear. j.b.
did you try a co. called rushgears.com ? says they will make 1 or 100 of type needed. good luck, johnboy va.
Allwheel, maybe you have already seen this, but maybe you should just start emailing some of these folks and see if they have any spare parts.

PM sent.
I can make that gear.
I'm the opposite of all the other shops,
I only make stuff for fast cars,on road, off-road.
The only vehicle I wont make parts for is a Mudd-Ox
Whipper
Please help allwheeldrive out, I am itching for some serious action in the mud and woods and he currently is the only one around me that I have had the pleasure to ride with. I had serious plans about using the bigfoot to tow that damn coot out of some more mud holes and im getting plain tired of waiting
