Hi Guys, i have an almost new mini excavator and if i measure the lower kingpost pin and bush clearance from side to side using a dial gauge i have .035'' or .889mm without putting a huge amount of weight on it which probably will produce more.
Has any one fitted new pins and bushes to a machine and got big clearances?
Is this normal for new or repaired machine.
Kubota agent says its fine but i think is very ordinary.
Any comments please.
