    Track bushings

    I think the photo is playing tricks on you... the inner bushing is square to the shaft. The inner and outer bushing are not binding, they move freely in relation to each other. It’s just that inner bush that’s stuck to the shaft... once that’s free I can slide the track frame off the axle shaft...

    Track bushings

    Any ideas on how to get this spherical bushing out of the track frame? It’s seized to the axle shaft and I can’t slide the frame out to even get at replacing the bushing. Other side was easy but this side won’t respond to heat/penetrant or leverage from the back.

That camera is worthless in anything other that absolute perfect conditions! edit: I got a dash cam for my truck that clips onto the rear view mirror and records front view and has a remote cam for the rear... I’d do that rather than replace the stock unit, would be nice to have...

    Cat 259d ECM wiring schematic

    As someone already said, pulling the motor will also give you a chance to replace this piece of shite... not sure what they were thinking when they designed this thing

    Cat 259d ECM wiring schematic

    Is there a way to clean the dpf and then reset the software yourself? You know, keep the machine legal? You’re still having to do the work or removing it, might as well try to do it right

    Skidsteer trencher vs. walk behind

    Thanks all. I’m looking into renting a skidsteer trenching attachment for this job. It’s irrigation for a play field and orchard so turf damage isn’t a concern as there’s no grass yet. Rocks are an issue but when those are found it’s best to go around since they are too big to dig out...
