  • The bearing in the rear idler on the John Deere 329E blew out so we replaced it along with the drive sprocket.

    Learn as you go, mileage is knowledge. Good job boys! Beats the hell out of a service tech bill too.

    Too bad Andrew Camarata wasn't there to give them some advice

      Exactly what I was thinking. Put a chain on it and yank "That should do it" LOL

    Great video go ahead and do the exact same thing to the other side and get it over with also consider buying one or two of the bottom idler rollers they will be the next to go and if you haven't serviced the oil in the drive motors do that as well.

      Agreed on the drive motor oil change

      I just recently had a 2000 hour service done, I think the oil in the drive motors was changed during that service but I'll check the record to make sure. Thanks for the advice!

    If you watched Andrew Camarta videos on Utube, he is good at putting tracks on and off his equipment!

    When all fails who you going to call-----Andrew Camarata .

    • @idigit4967

      LOL yeah that guy would have made this look easy and probably fixed five other things along the way.

    My advice to you is every time you do that , is a good idea check the bottom roller , so that way you have not to do it in a closer time

    Can you replace the rear idler without taking the track all the way off?

  • @kirk467
    @kirk467 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    You need one of those electric impacts from Harbor Freight, they’re cheap and work great!

  • @windzer
    @windzer 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Looks like u got your money out of those parts lol next time u can just smear anti seize on the threads of the bolt itself instead of the hole also keep an eye on those bolts for awhile make sure they arent backing out cause if they do they can snap off and you could have a hell of a time trying to get the broken part of the bolt out of the drive motor or your track frame you guys got very lucky all your bolts came out that easy to Begin with. Next side should be easy lol

    Damn, that sprocket was almost gone! How many hours were on the undercarriage?

    • @idigit4967
      @idigit4967  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not sure, the machine has almost 2200 hours on it right now. And yeah, that sprocket was gone LOL!

    • @galehess6676

      a little weld bead on the teeth and good for another 1000

  • @thomaspeplinski6618
    @thomaspeplinski6618 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You could have just put anti-sieze on the threads, little easier than putting in the hole.

    • @idigit4967
      @idigit4967  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      True, we're still a work in progress with this mechanical stuff LOL

  • @kirk467
    @kirk467 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    You just need to roll it back and forth till it seats on!

    • @idigit4967
      @idigit4967  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not sure if that's possible....

  • @justinadams35

      @idigit4967  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I want to say around 2200 or so. I don't remember exactly.

    The pry bars and walking the track off was good and you should have used the bars to get the track back on.

    • @idigit4967
      @idigit4967  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, first timers here, still learning LOL!

  • @kirk467
