Bobcat 632 weak drive motor

[skid632]

Hi all, I am having an issue with the drive motors on my skid, the left drive motor seems to be slower or has less power than the right drive motor. Is there an adjustment for the hydrolic flow or do the motors get week after time? I just had the left drive motor rebuilt(new seals) because it was leaking fluid into the chaincase. it dos not leak anymore. but it seems to have less power/slower. I do not remember if it had this issue before I had it rebuilt or not.Any input would be great. Thanks Mark

Can you swap drive motors from side to side? if the problem moves, its pump wear, if not its motor wear or they sutffed up with the seals and they are leaking internally.

If I swap drive motors side to side and the problem gos to the other side wouldn't that be motor wear?

You mentioned you had the motor re-sealed and that you weren't sure if the problem existed before. If it wasn't there before it could be an internal seal issue. If the problem was always there and the problem moves, yes, it will be motor wear.
