Caterpillar Spherical Bearing.

Post by armscor 1 »

Hi guys, just watched Kurtis at CEE on youtube installing a Spherical Bearing, interestingly the outer race has been cracked in one location assuming to install the inner race but there would not be enough yield to install the inner race.
How do they do it????

Crack the outer race?
Too many things going on to bother listing them.

Install the inner race.
Kurtis showed the earlier type bearing which is cracked 180 degrees apart, easy to fit inner race.
