Big Johnson parts

[mcd]

My wife is pining for some replacement parts for a Johnson Model J.
If anyone knows where I could get my hands on a couple of pieces I'd be happy as a clam.
I need the casting for the lower mount for the hydraulic cylinder, and I also need one blade guide arm, I don't need the bearings or bearing carrier, just the arm.
I have no idea how someone would break that arm, but they made up for it by brazing it back together, crooked......

Could also use a hydraulic cylinder rebuild kit.....

Cheers,
McD

Wish I could help but I only have a Johnson model C.

I am not personally familiar with the J model Johnson. I generally work with the larger models. The size of the Johnson in relation to the cylinder is of some importance as is adequate lubrication. However, what is highly important is the proper usage (technique and safety wise) of all Johnson models. Definitely straighten the "arm" for satisfactory results.

Is this a bandsaw?

Fun .

I'd call up Dake, they make the modern JH10W model. Also Kysor made the same model for some time.

Ooo, I just came across another Johnson Model J (yes bandsaw) as a parts donor!

This thread was off to a fast start and thankfully ended quick too.

Someone should start a small fish taco thread.

You will need a nice big Johnson to catch the fish.

Yes, sounds like he wants to know where he or his wife can put their hands on some big johnson parts.

Is that a 2-stroke or 4-stroke Johnson?
