JDcrawlers Messageboard

we just rebuilt my brother-in-law's 350c transmission, assembled the final drives with Loctite 515 - cleaned-primed, let it set overnight and when we filled it they leak-----both sides the same. my question is should we use a diff. sealer such as Permatex ultra black or something of that sort ?????

Now that's a good story---to bad smart phones weren't around then--you could have gone viral on the net with that one

Try now--- tech. can be a pain.---noticed other pics on here don't link up either and I will re post them when I get a second. weird how these things can just vanish???

Dale, John Deere has a great on line parts guide, my books are loaned out or I would look it up for you. give Deere a shot.

Be sure to shim BOTH end bearings properly. mine was deafening prior to the shimming I did. They all whine a little from the one's I have heard, and possibly the gears were worn in such a way that after the bearing repair in your reverser they do not mesh exactly the same to each other causing the w...

Haven't had to come on here in a while, figured I would pull this thread forward to help some who are getting there dozers ready for spring (and give us something to look at while its below 0 out) My Father and I have done quite a lot of work with this thing and it is handy as hell-- works great!!

Normal for that style, I converted mine because the springs are known to break and jam up the engine by wedging between the flywheel and reverser body....then it's a tow. I will bring my thread up from when I did mine and you can see how it's done....it was pricey, over 2 g's if memory serves.

No, pulling the power unit out of these crawlers is very easy(at least on the dozer models) If you look at the side pic with the springs you can see what the rattle is --- the small fingers that stick out under each spring at the flywheel surface come in contact with the dowel pins an cause the nois...

Perfect...one other thing, this dozer has an external (spin on) hyd. filter in the right hand compartment, on my 350c the hyd. filter is inside the hyd. fluid reservoir. ---any ideas??

Huh....just tried them all and are working...they take you to my facebook link. security thing???---I will try something diff.




...................O.K. can someone see if they work now... please

This is what the "RATTLER" style looks like --- if you are wondering.

Without hearing it your correct - it's tough. JT Richards is probably correct on the isolator although most people call it a "rattle" not a bearing noise. floorboards come out easy, possibly get a better listen with them out. this site is the best for help.
