Good job. 👏🏼 good for the archives. Send the gear to the Pakistanis and they'll make you one! Seriously. But that's a long shot. Case dozer parts can be very high!
One way you can tighten up those sloppy bearing races is to clean everything up really well, rough up the bearing cavity wall a little, wrap the bearing with a single layer of saran wrap, coat the outside of the saran wrap with j-b weld epoxy and slide it into place. Let the epoxy set up solid and pull the bearing out then peel off the saran wrap. If there is a lot of play, you can glue a shim strip to the outside wall to fill up the gap. I think you will probably need to have that small gear rebuilt or re-made. Not going to be a cheap part. If it eats away at the big gear, that will cost a lot more to replace.
Rebuilt both sides of mine last summer. No spacers on either side. Didn't seem to be a problem. Did replace one pinion gear. Found a good used one on ebay relatively cheap.
@@wildcatwilly Outer bearings were a slip fit in the housing but not sloppy. It was the fit of the inner bearings in the housing that were getting a bit loose. I debated about locktight, etc and finally decided to just put them back together as is. For my applications, it will last many more years. I think it depends on your long term plan.
I thought that the housing was gonna slide over the shaft. I didn’t expect that shaft to come off with the housing cover. Does the shop manual say anything about bearing preload and the use of spacers/shims? You’re already in this deep, might as well do it back to factory specs. Keep up the good work!
Glad you were wearing steel toe cap boots! That housing dropping off could have reduced your shoe size by a margin. We've all done it, just not on camera. Still loving the detail in your vids.

@@technicalitems731 for sure thanks for watching
Again very helpful. Like that he showed his mistake instead of editing it out. May save me from doing the same.
I prefer to bring you guys along on whatever happens. Even if I am an idiot from time to time. LOL

Awesome I will check there. Thank you for watching!
How tight were the outer bearing?

I'm not certain yet. Thanks for watching you always have great comments!
Great video!
Thanks for watching!
There is like bearing glue its like lock tight for bolts
I believe it is green loctite yes that's kind of my thought.
Thank you for watching.
Broken tractor has them
I'm very well acquainted with broken if you catch the next episode of the gears for the transmission does not work unfortunately...

I figure it might someone's toe's down the line. Plus breaks the monotony in the videos. Thanks for watching.
Have you had any luck finding parts ? I need replacement parts for the final drive. Thanks!! Great video btw
