So this is odd, (I think) I went to look at a prospective loader today and found something interesting. After I got it up a bit with the bucket and looked at the rollers this is what I found.
The front roller (#1) had a flange/flanges on the inside and the outside of the roller. So that both rails would go between both the flanges. eg 4 flanges
On the next roller back (#2) the roller only had flanges on the far outside edges. eg 2 flanges
On the next roller back (#4) it was back to inside and outside flanges again. eg 4 flanges
And so on all the way back, the same on both sides.
I always thought they used the same rollers in all 12 positions? Did somebody get cheap on the re-rail job and only put in some new rollers or something? Maybe even the wrong or cheaper roller? Anyone seen this sorta thing before?
Its 82 175C with a ripper if that matters.
Thnaks for any thoughts on this thing..... CB
