cockshutt 40 manifold


Hi all... my father-in-law has a cockshutt 40 and the manifold cracked today by the far left bolt for the far left exhaust.  Has anyone every tried fixing one of these or does anyone know where I can find one without spending a fortune?

Thanks

They list a new one here for $554.00.

If you find someone in your area that is good with welding Cast Iron you could try and fix the old one first. They need to pre-heat the manifold before welding in an oven then post heat and allow it to cool slowly to do the repair right.

Good Luck; Joe
