    You can tun down bushing with a drill press and a bolt and nut and emery paper.

    Thanks for creating this video. I have an ihi 12g. Same problem with linkage. Worn at top like yours but also down at the valves. I think the base of the stick is different than yours but I will take it apart again and try the same trick as you. Keep on the videos are great.

    I've used a 3D printer to make bushes, washers, spacers and other items on some of my equipment. I used PETG filament and it stands up to quite a bit of wear. I've even used it to make a bush for the dipper end of a JCB that was worn and egg shaped.

      @@TheHomePros6221 They are surprisingly robust, especially if they are printed with nylon or carbon fibre filled filament, but cheaper filaments are usually sufficient. The small JCB excavators come with nylon bucket/dipper bushes as standard. It would have been very straightforward to design and print a bushing for your control levers. I got a 1000mm tilt bucket for my Chinese digger last week and it has quite a bit of slop from new. I've just printed shims for the linkages, and it's inexpensive, for example a 2.8mm thick x 54mm diameter shim for a 30mm pin has cost less than 10p to make.

      It could have but the other side had very little wear, someone was def in there before and it looks like they took it out or lost it who knows? If my repair doesn’t last I’ll order a new bushing from ihi

    This seems like the way to go over the chinese units. A used one of these with ~1k hours seem to be around the same price as the chinese minis after shipping and other fees. Built much better and yanmar diesel engine, cant beat that.

    • @TheHomePros6221
      @TheHomePros6221  Год назад +1

      You are 100% correct and also these are much more comfortable to operate, on the Chinese units your arms are stretched way forward so your back hurts and these are so much smoother and not so jerky like the Chinese units
