Loader pins

Kelly Mehling ยท 2020-02-12 14:07

New here. wanted to see if there was a good place to have some wheel loader pins made. its a volvo L70B loader and I need to work on the bucket tilting linkages. Volvo's pin prices are stupid high, so looking for alternatives. Thanks.

    Make them from IHCP (induction hardened chrome plated) cylinder rod stock.

    Buy aftermarket, there are a couple of manufactures i wouldn't touch with a barge pole, but there are also a couple i would definitely use. takes the guess work out of did they make them exactly right and did i supply the correct figures to them.

    Good welding machine shop and new hard chromed hydraulic rod just like terex man said! Worked out excellent on my machine! Even had the bushings that go into the frame made and sent out for hardening!
