763G wheel bearings

[grahamjc]

i am new to the skidsteer wrench turning and am needing a little help i have a 2001 763G and the wheel bearings are shot in the front i mean the hubs are hitting the tubes when you move the wheels. Does anyone know how i need to go about changing these bearings, I tried to take the hub off but my 3/4 impact has seen better days so when i get one capable of taking the 1 1/2 bolt off thats when I need a little help. thanks

If you search manuals there is a post in here with manuals you can down load. Also it has been done to a couple other models but the procedure is simular. Tazza and Tool have old threads on wheel bearings and doing this.
Pretty straight forward but heavy labour, You will need a porta pac or acouple bottle jacks to pull the chain case sprockets off the axel. Recommend checking all you axels for end play (should be .010” or less) and changing at least both bearings on the bad axel.

Sometimes you have to hit the search button again when it returns nothing. Here's a direct link to the 763G service manuals.

You need more than an impact gun for those bolts, you need a breaker bar and a length of pipe. They are REALLY tight.
The porta-power or bottle jacks are needed to remove the hub.
