Caterpillar Mini Excavator gets bucket shims 

2001 Caterpillar 302.5 mini excavator
While getting the machine ready for the next retaining wall job, I decided to try something new.
Last time I shimmed the pins on the machine, I bought the thin metal ones that Caterpillar sells for a lot of money. This time I want to try something different.
While surfing the web, I saw a bucket shim made out of plastic. And the best part is they were a lot cheaper than the thin metal ones I used last time.
Let’s see if they last!
