kubota kx 121-3

[ANDY3882]

i recently bought a 2003 kubota kx 121-3 to use during a house i am going to build. I noticed the upper roller on one side is making noise. How do you determine the condition of this roller and lower rollers. I spun it by hand and it felt gritty like a bad bearing but had no play. The track on this side is making a clanking noise from this roller the other track is quite. Also my tracks are at about 40% with tears and cracks in them and everyone i talked to says run them till they are smooth or break/split. Any advice on doing touch of painting on the rops gray on the undercarraige and counter weight.

Congratulations on your purchase. You will get a lot of work done with it. The upper roller if it's making noise you can check to see if it has lube in it. If oil doesn't stay in because it's wiped the seal use a grease gun and pump grease in it IF you don't want to buy a new one. Good luck with everything and keep us posted.
