looseness in front blade and pistons

Post by north country dozer » Wed May 20, 2015 7:59 pm

Have had my '81 450c for 5 years now with putting maybe 150 hours on it. My 6-way blade has had an inch or so of play in all directions when up off the ground and moved by hand with good force. Obviously bushings and pins are worn. My down pressure is still good and maneuverability is better than decent ... I am recently getting numerous leads for jobs locally, am I risking a bigger problem occurring if I don't replace pins and bushing sooner than later? Thanks in advance for any responses
