SW ONT | New to me tractor with 600hrs. I am changing all the oil in the idlers and drive hubs. All was going well until I got started on the rear hubs for the reaction arm bearings.
I pulled out the 2 magnetic plugs and they were fully loaded with metal pieces, mostly small flakes but a couple larger hunks. Than I drained the oil, the oil was shiny and resembles never seize for its sheen.
Obviously something is wearing inside the hub, any known issues with hubs in MT700E's? Should I change the oil and check it again in 100hrs? Should I take it and have the hubs rebuilt?
My dealer doesn't sell many tracked machines and their background knowledge with them is limited | |
