Skid Steer + CTL Pictures!

Durallymax, how many hours use are you getting on a tank of fuel?

 

Give it up then, where do you buy your lights from ?

 

Ready for another day

 

Here is my machine with some of my attachments. I have more invested in attachments than the machine at this point.

 

Yeh it doesn't take long to gather a few attachments together
It looks like you have some nice pieces there equip junkie

 

A little project I can do without face plate was so worn from pushing out rock I replaced it with a new one,
the bucket pin was frozen in housing end up cutting old face plate in half to get it off

 

HM earth and others with CTL or mini excavators that have final drive troubles. My brothers 334 BC mini ex lost a seal and bearing. He called the BC dealer andthey told him with would be 5400 to get another final. I found a rebuilder down in Texas the remans them and has several on the shelf about half price. He sold us the parts for 900 and we did the rebuild. It wasnt easy but not super hard either. Its finaldrive.com they have alot of vids on youtube. Most of the finals are built in italy.

 

Hmm final drives I found an easier way stay in drive tran warranty.

I did both final drives on my deere 329D at 2000 hrs and hitachi (john deere) step up to the plate and replaced both sides with new 2 speed drive motors so when warranties nearly up you know what I getting

 

Do you find your tires going flat often?

 

Where there's a will there's a way. How many hours on the new tracks so far?

 

About 180hrs I think and thanks to those new rear idles no signs of wear but I will say the ride not quite as good when your up on the rear idler so at this stage it was money well spent have them made

 

what model do you have ?
hows your under-carriage going .. leaning in at the top yet ?

 

Hi jim
Deere 329D now that I have the new idlers on this is what I didl

I took the twin ibler off and had this single one made up to stop rocks and stones being pushed into the track were the idlers run causing bad vibration through the machine and a life span of 500hrs now I should get well over a 1000 hrs out of set of tracks on rock

 

Bump!

 

Pushing out a bunch of fill for a new driveway.



A little job interruption to replace a front idler.

 

U

JNB ,

Everytime you post a new thing is being fixed on your machine....how has it been since the fire etc....?....

 

Its actually been working fine. The bearing lasted another 200 hrs. after I first heard it, so it was due. I have a couple other irons in the fire right now so I gotta make the machine last until Spring.

 

Glad to hear its working better for you....hope it makes it much longer than just this coming spring.....

 

Did the end of the frame splay out or is that how it's built?

You haven't seemed to have very good luck with that 320!

 

Here's some tree raking I did with the ctl Monday.
