has anybody had any experience with expander bucket pins? i've tried welding and line boring in the past it just doesnt last very long. the expander system sounds like an excellent solution. i would like to talk with someone who has tried it before. any help is appreciated !:drinkup:notworthy:usa:beatsme:Banghead ointhead
I have been thinking the same thing Any experience?
expander pins Yes I have used this system on a 950 B. the top and bottom atriculated hitch area or center pins. They worked great and have been in this loader for about 2 years now. this unit works everyday and I have only had to adjust them once. They should have this pin system in from the factory if you ask me. If you need more info you can contact me on my cell 410-979-5320 and I will be happy to share the info with you. Billy:drinkup
thanks for the reply. im going to gather more info as to cost and time frame. i'll post when i find out more. :notworthy:cool2
The expanders are the way to go!! we use them on our demolition robots (thay come factory mounted), and they really last! a normal pin and hole wear out in just a couple of hundred hours on these small machines, when using a heavy hudraulic breaker. On the biggest BROKK robot we have, there is no sloppines at all, even after 400h of hard beating!:Banghead the only downside is the high price, but it pays for itself! They should come stock on all machines!
came across this product on utube .it seems something I can try on my backoe. would that be available in Canada and what be the price of one
Utube link please ?
was viewing how to replace jcb bushing on a slew ram on utube . and that came up.
We have a few on the 416c they are terrible to get out but hold great
