I was going to post pics about finishing up the repairs on the right side of loader arms when forum went down, so here's a couple more.
One thing I failed to mention in the repairs on the left side was how to determine the exact location of the pin boss when fitting new plates. I figured a complex system of geometric measuring would be difficult at best and easily lead to error in location. To make the task easy, simple, and relatively accurate, I placed the pins removed from the lift arm components in the pin boss's on the opposite side, the side not broken. Fit a sturdy piece of steel on the end of the pins and tack weld the pins to the steel angle.
Then you simply remove the "pin template" and transfer it to the side being repaired. Slip the two pins in the lower pin boss's on that side, then fit the pin boss to be located and welded. Here's the pin template holding pin boss in it's proper location with no side plates, then a pic with the side plates clamped in place.
But even using this method isn't dead on precise, so I fitted the loader arms on the machine, loosen clamps and make slight adjustments in the fitting of the plates so that pivot pins went in properly on both sides. It would be a bad day if one was to weld up the side plates and pin boss, then try to fit it to the machine, only to find the pin boss is off by 3/16" and not be able to fit the pin that attaches it to the machine. Very bad day indeed.
