Hello, I have been working on an A770 recently and have been replacing the carrier seals. The seal replacement went well but yester after replacing the front sprocket and axle on the left side of the machine I noticed that the front chain on that side is extremely tight with virtually no slack. I can't exactly recall how tight the chain was before but I'm concerned. I did one side at a time, so I didn't mix up left/right chains. Does anyone have any idea what I am missing or what I could have done to cause the chain to become extremely tight? Thanks! Ian
