Hello, I have been searching extensively online but have not been able to find any information on this specific topic. I recently purchased a 90xt and while tightening the drive chains, I accidentally broke two studs on the left front axle assembly. I have already ordered new studs, but the shop technician at Strongco (a Case dealer in Canada) mentioned that changing them could be either easy or difficult, depending on the situation. Has anyone encountered a similar issue and successfully replaced these studs before?
I own two new vehicles that have never let me down. My mechanic has been maintaining them for the past few years, and I may need to inquire about any issues he's noticed. I have replaced several wheel bearings recently, and one axle sprocket's center cracked.
I received the components for my mega road project yesterday, and they seem to be nothing more than upgraded axle studs. Installation should be a simple process, with a little heat possibly assisting the process.
I am the proud owner of a 90XT machine. I have successfully replaced multiple axle studs, but have not had to replace any hub studs. Best of luck with your repair project!
