[QUOTE="140mower, post: 3571, member: 447"] Yeah, I was glad I was sitting when he gave me the price. No, there is no bearing just a taper on each end of the pin then a sleeve slides over with an internal taper. the sleeve has one slit that runs full length and I think three that run about 3/4 of the length to allow for expansion when tightening. The theory is that with a conventional pin the hole has to be bigger than the pin in order to get the pin in, and once you have slight movement, wear begins and accelerates as the tolerances increase. With this set-up, once the pin is tightened and set there is no interference fit and hopefully no wear. And of course, no welding or machining, which brings the pin onto a more level playing field price wise and it should be an afternoon project versus a two day marathon. Well that looks kind of like an advertisement, but honest I'm no salesman.[IMG]https://www.skidsteerforum.com/DesktopModules/AdverForums/ImageGallery/emotion-5.gif[/IMG] Don [/QUOTE]
