I am rebuilding a Gleaner A.  All the scrap yards I've contacted have gotten rid of them.
Does anyone know if any parts from F, K or other models fit?  
I am particularly looking for the base part of the unloading auger, or maybe even the whole thing.

Both K&F unloading augers are 10” diameter. Get the whole unloading auger from parts machine. Probably need to measure the A’s grain tank section auger~ is that what you mean by “base part”Thinking an A might be closer to a K’s?? If not, then get an F’s & cut it down for length. Either way~ Guessing it may be easiest to shorten unloading auger drive end versus pivot/bushing/yoke end??? Drive end consist of a threaded short male stub shaft where the drive sheave mounts. So if a replacement grain tank auger section is too long, cut off its driven female threaded receptacle, then cut away needed flighting/shaft (hollow pipe?) to desired length, then re-weld female threaded receptacle into flighting pipe. That would allow pivot/bushing/yoke end to reside inside its original pivot discharge housing for easier exterior grain tank mounting.

A few weeks too late. I had about 500 pounds or more of NOS gleaner parts that I decided had been in my way too long, I sent them to China. Your in Va. I'm in Md. and if you had come got them, I would have given them to you. I have no idea of how much would have worked on a Gleaner model A.
If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

It's the auger part in the base (the part connected to the grain bin) with a universal joint that is most beat up, but the whole thing is a bit rough.

I'm thinking my best option is lots of pictures and measurements and visit Oakley salvage in NC.

Was hoping someone on here had done it before!

I haven’t replaced an A grain tank auger, but I have replaced whole units on K & F. Get a whole replacement unit & a new drive end bearing when upgrading. Check replacements yoke for wear. Try to find one in decent shape. Could use a hydraulic fold or manual if parts machine is complete enough(hydraulic valve/cylinder/linkage, etc)?

Thanks, that's encouraging.  I thought about trying to upgrade to hydraulic, I've got an extra port on the manifold.  I'll have to see what I can find.
