D2 pony crab body

Some more pictures
Top completely broken off.
Seems I've opened a can of worms. Previous owner must have some way damaged carb body.

I've seen the body brazed back together in various places and work fine. Might be an option for you.

If the D2 is a J, where the intake elbow bolts to the firewall, check for binding or misalignment as that will break a new body. There was a mod a member sported a long time back to insert a hose in the elbow to stop the breaking.

Here's how the one on my j was done[attachment=51442]20181106_160158.jpg[/attachment]

After removing the two horizontal screws that hold the carb to the body what else holds the two items together?
Have done a quick search and read some old threads but can't get my head around it.
Thanks in advance

I have a D-4 with the pony motor and a 70 JD diesel with a pony motor and the carburetors sure look alike.Don't have them side by side to be sure but it might be an option.
