Yellow fever is a serious condition, and should be treated as such. While in its early stages, it CAN be treated. Simply consult a professional spouse and inform her of your symptoms; desire to spend money on fixing an old machine, more and more time spent in the garage away from the family, irrational rationalizations, and whatever else you are feeling. I URGE you to seek help immediately!
If left untreated, this condition will lead to hours scouring Craigslist, eBay, local ads, and more in a nearly futile attempt to find what's known as a "Lew" deal (Lew deal: finding valuable items for unreasonably "lew" prices. This condition is often theorized to be partially due to intimidation of the seller by the buyer to get the desired price.). If allowed to continue, you will soon find your garage and even worse, your yard filled and littered with Cub Cadet's and related paraphernalia. The condition has even been known to worsen and develop into red fever, orange fever, or worst of them all, green fever. If caught, green fever is considered untreatable. Those known to be infected with the green fever are frequently shunned from society, being left to toil in obscurity with other infected individuals.
So again, please, PLEASE, for the good of your family and your own well being, get help immediately!!
That being said, I've got a heck of deal on a CI front axle I can sell you. Maybe you'd be interested in a fender pan from a 147? Come on man, don't leave me hanging!!
