Hey guys, had an issue the other day with my b-hoie attachment. The hinge pin on my dipper slid out while digging stumps. Then while digging, yes I was watching the bucket not the boom, bent the dipper out of alignment and snapped the clevis off the rod. Very non-happy moment So while going about the FIX I was looking at the attachment of the clevis to the rod.
Is this clevis actually screwed into the rod?
I got everything out and grooved cleaned, pre heated and welded the clevis back onto the rod. Multi passed the welds. Pressed the dipper back into shape making sure the pins would stay aligned and put every thing back together. So it seems to work , now I can finish the job. Just asking about any thing I should be worried about with the fix. Sorry I got no pics for you since it was a stress filled sunday trying to get everything back together.
The clevis looked like cast as it was crystiline at the break.
Is the clevis available from B-Cat seperately?
Thanx in advance for any info.
