On the right side of the lift arm, the bore that holds the bushing has worn elongated and unless it is bored to a round condition with a sleeve installed, the bushing will continue to wear out the bore. The tapered pin and bushing are made of very hard material as opposed to the inside bore of the Bob-Tach. It will work for a while but won't hold up well.
Aside from the music (which you have no control over), you do an awesome job of showing all the details on your videos. You've really gotten a lot better at putting out great videos. They've always been good, but now...they're great. Keep up the good work. Now...Get back on the jet boat. You're killin us with the suspense. LOL
Great video. Just an FYI id you were unaware, Chlorinated brake cleaner produces an extremely potent neurotoxin (phosgene) when exposed to high heat, beyond 315 degrees C. So, gas cutting, plasma and welding. A minuscule 40ppm over 15 minutes exposure is the maximum threshold SCOEL established. It is very nasty stuff. I stick to acetone and Walter weld cleaner. Thanks, be safe
@5:43 -- Looks like you were using a socket to beat out that bushing. Question: That bushing seems to be in the way of the grease zerk putting grease on the pin?
Have you ever had problems with the actuator in the machine? I have the same machine and it locks up all the controls and only way I can get it unlocked is to turn off machine and then turn on. Code reading something with the actuator. Thanks for the video I need to replace my front pins aswell.
I had a John Deere 260 that needed the pins replaced, but I sold it before I got around to the job. Based on your video, I think Bobcat did a better job on engineering the replaceability of the pins/bushings. Mine looked like it was going to be a lot more a$$ pain. What year is your Bobcat and how many hours does it have?
Did you pull the bushing out of the right side bottom bobtatch? I just tore mine apart today and trying to figure out how to get my bushings out of it. Didn’t know if you had a trick.
It looks like the bushing was pounded to pieces causing an elongated bore hole. A new bushing slid in there will wear on the Bob-Tach bore, supposed to be a pressed fit...
