What are folks doing to fix worn out wear shoes on the WD/WD-45 drawbar hangers? Just clean it up and weld a similar thickness plate in there with holes drilled? I searched and couldn't find much, other than you can buy complete new drawbar hangers for about $200.

From the AC parts book it looks like they used to sell you 2 new 90 degree wear shoes that you then welded together to form the box that goes around the round part of the hanger.

This one is worn out top and bottom.

Been awhile since I worked on one of these. That one looks like a good candidate for replacement! Good used ones are not real common however. I would think you could make new pieces out of angle iron.

Angle iron is a great idea. I'll have to measure it and see if it's close to a stock size. If not I'm sure I can trim a little off of the walls if needed. With the welds and the worn shoes, I'd replace the drawbar for $200 if I weren't so dang frugal!

wjohn, somewhere, I have a drawbar-bail I was in the process of doing this to. Don't remember if it was for some puller-drawbar or maybe something for a sub-soiler? Could have just been a brain-fart. Will look around the farm this weekend and see if I can find it. Of course, with my memory, odn't hold your breathe.
