seems in hindsight it would have been a good idea to tack weld in several places the head of the stud to the hub,which you might end up doing if the hub is to wallered out to hold a stud. good luck,make sure to torque the new ones to the proper level.
question for the dealers along this subject I have a 504a foton and a le 204 dong feng I assume that the front drive system are similar setup with the front driveshaft unions to the front gearcase. I have not been down that road.
I think there was someone no to long ago with a front axle shaft sheared and if I remember right he sheared it pushing snow.
well I picked up the thumb looks like the construction of it was pretty good .When I placed the thumb on the stick I saw it was not made for this stick(the sale said it was generic) but all I need is a piece of steel 3/4 thick tapered from 4- 3/4 inches to 6 – 1/2 inches by 42 inches long to flatten out the bottom of the stick and add one grease fitting on the thumb,the deal was too good to be to easy.oh well open another beer!
yea there was two of them ,but being a online auction I did not place a bid on the other one,cause I could not watch it live could have made a few bucks, but oh well shouldda coulda woulda crystal ball not working.
well I got lucky I won the bid on that thumb I was looking at,no one else bid on it so it went for the starting bid,200 bucks now I have to run to Knoxville,tn. and get it .I will keep you all up to date.
143 degrees f is the coolest thermostat I ever heard of was for a gas burning pleasurecraft engine I thing they put the operating temp that low was to save the raw water exhaust manifolds and elbows.
you are right .there is some on a auction I am looking at, Excalibur is the manf. 36 incher they have two so hopefully I can get one.
