Yeppers found a hole that I can poke money into. Boy this 1010 John Deere crawler has been just that. Replaced everything in both finals, now I pulled motor, thought I was just going to need to replace rings, and rod bearings. Surprise, surprise figured I better look at the mains while I had pan off, front main looked really good, center main was BAD, pulled the rear main (thrust bearing)it was good. So now I have to send crank shaft off to be turned. Our local machine shop wants $300.00 just to turn the 3 main journals. So I'm sending crankshaft off to Portland and it is $185, that's including shipping, with 2 weeks turn around,. And they turn both mains AND rods journals.
This don't surprise me after all the other stuff I found was MICKEY MOUSED, just hope I don't find anything else that is messed up. Supposedly the only thing wrong with the crawler when I bought it, was needed seals put in the hydraulic pump!!!! Ya Right
Have a good day
