Broken lift arm on John Deere 6220

lstmd

Good morning all,
I broke a lift arm on a JD 6220 yesterday. I was distracted picking up a cattle trailer and the lift arm got caught against the draw bar while I was turning out on the road. I was surprised how easily it broke.
Does anyone know

If they can be welded?
or of a scrapped JD 6220 where I could get a salvaged one.

I priced one online last night. They cost about €300 new.

Thanks

Might be better asking on the main f&f forum

Try one of the breakers yards, there'll be a few of them on DoneDeal.

I've used both of these in the past and no problems in getting deliverys from them.

Theres very little that cant be welded, talk to a good welder with experience in machinery, there's different welds and rods for various jobs, it will be a good bit cheaper than of the cost of a new arm
