There is a part# 265618 That fits the old l225, l445 and my l555. You might want to check a dealer to see if this part will fit a l455. NH used a lot of the same parts on different machines. This part is around $22.00 from dealer. Just a thought. I have brought back to life two of these machines and they are well built. I don't know if any sealant would fix the bushings. Just remember some of the parts on your machine are no longer available so treat them like gold. If I were working on this skid I would get it off ground and try to adjust the creep out. Tires will creep what ever way you bump stick. Adjust so it will stop. One side at a time. I don't your setup but the rear attach point should be slotted. Use a mirror to look at it. Manual may tell you to bump stick to adjust but I use a small hammer and punch. Just loosen bolt enough to move it. Won't take much. My l225 needed the slot lengthened forward as it was to short. With the creep gone I think your troubles will be gone. Remember you are running the machine at much higher speed when working. So a little problem at idle becomes a big problem at full speed. Remember to lock the boom up and be safe. You have to be patient to work on these skids.</p></blockquote><p></p>
