[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 1676, member: 82"] Ok, i bought a 743 in April that had an engine bay fire, i have since re-conditioned the engine and re-cored the radiator, i have only had it moving for a few minutes a a few hydro lines were burnt and oil was leaking out. I just ran it to see if the hydrostatics were still working, and they seem to be ok. My plan it to remove EVERYTHING but the hydro motors off the chain case and axles. Then ream the bushes and make new pins then paint. Are there any tricks to this? or just go wild removing bits, plugging hydro lines and a lot of de-greasing. I know it is going to be a big job, but i do have the luxury of having 2 other machines so a time factor isn't a big deal. Should i be replacing anything when it is in pieces? like axle seals that don't seem to be leaking. I will be pulling the hydro pump apart and facing the swash plates. I will also re-seal the control block. Anything else i should be looking at? I have machined new pistons and gland nuts for the lift arm rams, new seals and chrome bar will be used to finish them off. I will do the same to the tilt ram. Any and all suggestions are welcome.
