I posted this on the Repair forum also, and thought I would see if anyone here has had a similar problem.
I just bought an Oliver Super 55, and the left side 3 point lift arm attaching pin hole is pretty wallowed out. It had been heli-coiled, but it stripped out again. Even with the heli-coil in the hole the pin would just slide in and out of the hole freely.
I pulled the heli-coil out and there is very little evidence of threads left in the hole. Has anyone ever tried drilling and bushing one of these? Is there an oversized pin that will fit.
Here is the pin just inserted in the hole.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Jonny
