I can’t find a left steering knuckle for a L345 . It’s a discontinued idea. Even places that said they had it online do not have it. Parts places don’t have it . I can’t weld it because I don’t have the pieces. I need some help

eBay, craigslist, call different parts dealers.

It would also help not to be so vague when trying to find a part.
Like is the tractor a 2wd or 4wd, huge part difference.
Having the right name for the part is extremely helpful too.
As there is no "steering knuckle"
There is a few other Knuckle parts listed.
Include a picture of what you need.
If you need to see it on a blueprint go to here:

And being armed with the part number helps too
Also find out what other tractors used the same part, there is more than likely, more than one model.
The last 2 I can help with if you give me more info.

For some reason there are multiple part numbers none that work it’s the left steering arm knuckle . 37800 43953 is one number they gave me. I do believe it was used on other tractors I think the L305 . It is a 2wd.

Had the sme problem with my L345DT its a common problem. I welded mine back together and also bought a NOS one from I believe 007Kubotoguy here. Or maybe it was from ebay. Youre going to have to scour the internet for a junkyard one. They arent made anymore.

If you poked around an auto junk yard you might find something close. Or maybe a local fab shop could make you one, especially if they have the other one to go by.
