Front idler support on a JD ct322 will not pull out, any tricks to get this unstuck?
You were able to get the track off? Usually when they don't pull out they don't collapse either. You could secure the machine to something immovable and maybe pull the support with something else (come-a-long, another machine). Smack the track frame with a hammer to loosen the dirt/rust while pulling (and generous amounts of PB Blaster). More than one machine here has had that frame torched out (expensive option). Quite the design, isn't it?.....
Yes track removed cut idler it was trashed anyways,we are doing the things you have in your posting,will heat help ? thanks for your responce
Can't hurt.
After few days of spraying,heating ,beating with 20 lb. sledge and 10 ton pull back ram it finally came out,thanks for your sugestions..
