Tappered pins

   When I changed the tapered pins and bushings on my 753 bobcat, I removed the grease zerk for the tapered pin on the bobtach. Then I loosened the bolt on the outside of the loader arm that screws into the tapered pin a turn or two and tapped it with a heavy hammer (32ounce ball pein). Removing the zerk allows the tapered pin to go into the bobtach housing and clear the end of the loader arm. Loosen bolt a little bit more, tap bolt head to drive pin in further.

   Do you remember how much you torqued them pin bolts ?

   I think the spec is 250 ft-lbs, but @willie59 might know better than I do. If I get some time, I will try to look for my bobcat service manual and look it up.
