Docwheelhorse 2,682 #1 Posted May 18, 2021 Hello all... been to a bunch of mom and pop hardware stores.... been to a current Toro/ retired Wheel Horse dealer... been to the "national brand" hardware stores... Haven't tried NAPA... WHERE ON GODS GREEN EARTH CAN I FIND THE WOODRUFF KEY FOR MY HUBS? I even looked on Epay... haven't tried McMaster Carr or similar yet either. Anybody know the part number? Thanks Tony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 8,720 #3 Posted May 18, 2021 @Docwheelhorse, do you have an " INDUSTRIAL SUPPLY NEAR BY ? " they do a lot of sprockets , shives , pulleys , belts , bearings , probably also have the size key you need , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cschannuth 3,816 #4 Posted May 18, 2021 McMaster Carr has everything and you will have it at your house in one or two days but the shipping might cost more than the actual key. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
76c12091520h 3,670 #5 Posted May 18, 2021 Try 937108. It's one of those "unique " to Wheel Horse pieces, at least in our area. We always had to get them straight from Toro/Wheelhorse 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pfrederi 17,866 #7 Posted May 18, 2021 Wheel Horse used at least 3 different keys over the years. The two smaller ones are usually 1/4 but length varied 1" long are #15 others are 1-3/8" #22 Both at McMaster or hardware store. if you have a GT14 or D series they use a #RX key The are very very hard to find even McMaster doesn't have them...i do if you need one 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Docwheelhorse 2,682 #12 Posted May 18, 2021 Tractor is a GT1600 Work Horse... I should've looked but don't know if it has a 1" or 1 1/8th axels. I assumed the woodruff key was same for everything.... ooops Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herder 2,354 #13 Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) I've purchased an assorted size pack from Tractor Supply and was able to find the two I needed for my 1054. Squonk is right, it's not the first pack I've misplaced. Edited May 19, 2021 by Herder 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 41,320 #16 Posted May 18, 2021 Measure your keys. McMaster has the sizes listed right with the keys. Order a pack Install 2. Then put 2 at 4 different places in your shop. You're bound to run across them at some point! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Docwheelhorse 2,682 #23 Posted May 21, 2021 Hello Everyone, thanks for the help... I will try to go back to the Toro dealer and see if the 937108 key is available... then will continue my local search / sit down and order them online. Home Depot, Lowes, Ace, True Value... Doit Right... etc.... all no gots. Close but too small is all I can find... Tony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
