Looks like a great machine and powerful enough for the job. Why do you need the conveyor running so fast with stones and debris flying off the sides. In the real world you'd have a belt jam about every 10 minutes running like that and the operator shovelling from around the machine 10 minutes every hour. Would like to see a photo of the shredder drums when this job finished to see how much of that wire needs clearing.
Not sure about lifespan, but the shafts run about $25-28k, but that's complete with bearings, rear plate, etc. From what I've seen in my research, most owners re-tip/hard-face the shafts instead of replacing.

Hours on the machine?
How long do the shafts last and how much is replacement?
