    With enough slack adjustment the rim could work as a drum for a minute?

    I will tell this one on my self. Seal started leaking on the LFW of the Kubota. Knew bearings were gone. Had gotten new bearings and seal. Thought, it's not that bad, I'll use it awhile longer...:picard:...when I heard grinding noises, I decided to fix it...
    What would have been a $75 parts and 1 1/2 hrs labor job for me, turned into $1000 parts and probably 1 day total labor job...:headbang::headbang:...
    Lesson learned the hard way...
    New housing, new axle, new gear, other bearings and seals... 0613200621.jpg 0613200621a.jpg 0613200622.jpg 0615201311.jpg 0616201139.jpg 0616201253.jpg

    Buncha noobs at the barn this morning. Pics forthcoming. Helped a class a driver get his 10 wheeler hooked up to his trailer. Dude said he worked for the post office before just got in the truck and drove. Never had to back up or hook up to a trailer:rofl: :lol:
