No probably not ! it took me more time to order parts and go get the blanks for the hydraulics than to do the job haha! did you use this method as well ?
@@McG373 pretty much yeah, the Planetary Gear allows removal of the Half Shaft without taking anything else out and I changed the Sprockets with the undercarriage away from the Machine, had to split the Tracks though but managed on my own.
yes i was only intending on pulling half shaft but couldn't grab it 🥴to get it out , did you press a pin out ? some seem to have a master pin and others don't, chains on mine are warn enough to get ol one off easily by throwing track off idler after releasing a bit of grease i reckon and could possibly get new chain on with out pads with out a split chain aswell ! ill see what i do there when i come to it
@@McG373 just heated the Link and the Pin drifted out. Sounds like the Chains on your Machine are well stretched! I did a JS220 for worn Idlers and Chains but had to repair the Track Frames where the Idlers slide with welded in Shim strips. All the best for now 🤙
yes not too bad realy about £1-£2/ hour i make repairs out to be on the machines compared to £8-£10 on depreciation on new machinery but thats not taking in to account lost revenue over the repair period and about 1-£2/ hour of labour also so not much in it in the end haha , maybe £2-£4/ hour doesnt sound worthwhile but over 15-20000 hours of use it sounds better
👍👍👍.
Looks like new sprockets on the JS is needed 😂😂
haha! yup needs everything nearly,they weren't much better 4 years ago when i bought the machine!
Great content anyway 👌 👍
I did a slew Ring on a 210volvo about 10 years ago. Changed the Drive Sprockets too. Wasn’t a bad job to do.

How much parts cost per hour is acceptable.
