I took the machine to bobcat for a fifteen minute free test drive and when the service manager was operating it during a few turns it began to bang and I was able to see the right front wheel skip a beat in rotation....The right rear wheel was driving as it should and the left side operates properly...That is why I am trying to see if anyone out there in loader land has ever experienced something like this .....Rather then re inventing the wheel I hope to gain some knowledge from others first about the tear down process......All the bobcat service man would tell me was leave it and they would make the repair at $90. some dollars an hour plus parts....I had to inform him that I had to do the tear down my self because being retired I don't get overtime any more.......... Have fun, buckshot</p></blockquote><p></p>
