the above is the inner spline damage as close as i could take a pic without blurring
tbuelna ,hi mate
This picture shows with a white marker the edge of a threaded hole and the very small white markered arrow shows to the tip of a spline. It has 13 mm of material across this distance.not much to play with.
The lubrication is gear oil 80/90 weight .This gear (hub) is flame...
Hi Terry
Appreciate the help mate .
I wish to refurbish both internal and external splines.Cost of new parts around $10,000,00 .
You're right ,the internal spline has only 13mm of material from internal spline tip to threaded hole edge making it seem difficult,i wonder at that thickness whether...
Hi all.
After experiencing the high cost nature of replacing this casing and gear due to spline wear ,looking for best option to repair or replace splines.I assume keyseating this drive assembly would not be up to the job.This drive assembly is out of a 20 tonne track loader.Any ideas...
