Find a bushing that fits the pin, oversize the hole to a zero tolerance fit so that you have to press the bushing in, freeze the bushing or heat up the hole and drop it in.
That's a easy fix. Go buy pipe from steel yard that fits you pin. When you put a full piace pipe across and install a greese set. I'll pay 300.00 and mod it to work better for a few dollars. Then pay 2000.00 to 3000.00. But that's me. I can weld. Built my ripper tooth for less then 100.00 for subcompact kioti tractor. It works grate with less mess
Yes there are ways to fix it. I understand that. If you follow my channel you can see I’m capable of that. It’s the fact a lot of folks aren’t. So if they are looking into buying this piece and they don’t then maybe go ahead and buy the right thing. I think i was looking at some name brands for around 1600 bucks. I’m already around 900 after buying and upgrading the cylinder and hoses.
Probably have a few 100 hours on it by now. Getting wallowed out a bit but hey it happens. I think I’ll be looking to get the right one when it wears down to much.
Hmm clearly you did watch all the videos. It came with a bigger ram than I put on it. I just put one with more length on it, but ok. (Was not manual) But you would know.
Well in the beginning of the video I stated the people i bought it from put it on. Or welded it on. So it came with it and it was new. I have a few other videos on modding it and now I’m starting to have some luck out of it. But yes a lot of time into it to get a little luck. And not everyone has 2k laying around to just go get one from a dealer. That’s the point of doing the video.

Thats a simple fix. Get a larger harden steel bolt and only weld after it completely breaks
it needs greasable bushings like the rest of your joints,,if you do not have a lathe to machine them you will need to have them made
Easy fix brass bushing done from get go should last much longer thanks for the report
excavators use hardened steel bushings and pins. bronze/brass wont last 5 minutes.
How’s the repair holding up?

How much are these new?
Thanks for the info
350ish with out any coupons.
Dude puts a giant hydraulic cylinder on a manual thumb, and then blames the thumb manufacturer for added wear. 🤣😂🤣

How thick are the sides
I thought I said but maybe not. I would have to check them. I know the main mount and the jaw are to different thicknesses.
@@thecheltonchannel5739 ok thanks
The jaw it’s self is 1/2” and the piece that’s welded to the dipper stick is 1/4”
Press a bushing in there
The thumbs not worth the time and money to be honest.
I'm sorry but why the heck u got that crap any way. More down time with that pos. Just get the one from the dealer.
