cubastreet Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Do people change bearings in these or just replace the whole roller? Does the centre press out with the bearings on it or? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny.race Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I've never seen bearings in track rollers. Are those the bottom ones or the top? Most shops will swap them over/out. The only type I've seen apart are CAT and they had a big arsed pin that ran in a bigger arsed bushing. Everything floated in oil. Once one of those go it's mates need to be looked at closely. An undercarriage lives in one of the most abusive environs known to man. Dozers more than diggers but they pretty much operate all in the same way. Leaving machines in wet area's/under water is asking for trouble in the undercarriage department. Ching ching ching! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubastreet Posted June 27, 2022 Author Share Posted June 27, 2022 @johnny.racebottom ones. There's one good one from 8, 3 have side play and 4 are complete toast. The grenaded ones have the remains of bearing races in them, not sure if they're salvageable. Bought the digger off a mate and he said he'll sort them for me. I don't mind rebuilding them if I can else I'll just let him sort it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taistorm Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Usually just swap them out bro. I've never replaced the bearings besides on a cat skidsteer that had this oddball setup that was grease one side and oil on the other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
