I picked up a set of Loegering VTS's for my Komatsu SK820-5 as I need to go back and forth from tires to tracks as seasons/conditions dictate. They were super reasonable due to track condition but they do have some hours on them. The PO said it is the second set of sneakers on them and he did replace some of the rollers/idlers and 1 hub as needed.
So my question is has anyone taken apart the "sealed":cool2 hubs and done a bearing replacement? We have a place here in Buffalo that can get any bearing and seal thanks to the longevity of the guys working there and their extensive cross-reference. Reason being is I figure I may want to open things up due to the hours on the units and the pricing I see on the replacement parts. Doing the work myself is no problem.
Thoughts appreciated.
