I have no experience with sickle bars. Picked up a Ford 515 at an auction and after a few acres of mowing hay the idler pulley with the sealed bearing self destructed. While installing the new idler I noticed ALOT of play on the driven side of the wobble box shaft.
My instinct is this is very bad, but since the unit is called a 'wobblebox' maybe its normal??? (Wishful thinking?)
Looked at the exploded parts diagram and it doesn't really show if there should be any movement.
Video of the wobble box:
Thanks! Chris
