    Reynolds finishing scraper LSE-14

    my company has an Lse-14 scraper that when you raise it up to its highest position it will not go down straight the left side always lowers faster. i have rebuilt and swapped the cylinders and it still does the same thing. there are no other valves in the system to say that it is a valve...

    544H dash select button

    When placing the tractor in reverse there is voltage on the F & R leads. Forward is fine, but the tractor won't move, and neutral is fine. We may have a problem further down the line. We noticed that someone had cut the black wire on the old FNR harness. Just to troubleshoot the mechanic cut the...

    544H dash select button

    I didn't want to post another thread and get nailed for not searching. Our 544H will not shift. We replaced the FNR selector with the new/updated part. It came with a Y-harness. We can get the tractor to start, but it won't go into gear. We're getting voltage across the wires for F and R when...

    They're no longer here. But I'll hold onto these just in case.

    JD 544H Pivot Movement

    We tried this and the "extra" bushing went all the way in. Apparently, when the 2 (TWO!!) "mechanics" that worked on this told me they had installed the two bushings I should have checked their work. To quote Ronald Reagan, who was quoting an old Russian proverb - Trust, but verify.

    JD 544H Pivot Movement

    We finally got an opportunity to pull this in and look at it. Here's what the bottom looks like with the plate removed.

    JD 544H Pivot Movement

    Neither. When I slow the video down on YouTube to .25x it's the frame and bushing sliding up and down on the pin. Goes back to what I was saying previously about the bushings slipping up and down on it. I shot a video of the old pin and one of the new (spare) bushings. The new pin and new...

    JD 544H Pivot Movement

    The frame is moving up and down. That pin is galled from being pressed back out to inspect if everything was concentric.

    JD 544H Pivot Movement

    I definitely appreciate your help. That's the reason I signed up and posted here, because we're just at a loss. We did replace those two bushings, but if those are what hold it in place I'm wondering if the pin / bushing clearance was too much? Even though they're new?

    JD 544H Pivot Movement

    Literally just got done talking with the mechanic and came in to reply. The bushings were installed correctly with the bevel facing the correct direction for the seal. I have a 3rd that we'd ordered sitting here that we were looking at. In your pictures above we ordered everything shown from...

    JD 544H Pivot Movement

    I'm replying to you, but also to PartsandService - We did purchase and install those bearings, but I am unaware if the mechanics realized there was a taper. Perhaps they're installed incorrectly and that's allowing that movement? It will be a job to remove and inspect, but that's probably the...

    JD 544H Pivot Movement

    I can work on getting a video, but I can tell you the movement is up and down. It's the front half of the machine sliding up and then thumping back down.

    JD 544H Pivot Movement

    Hope we can get some guidance here. We have a 544H s/n DW544HX574096 that was brought in for excessive movement at the pivot point. When applying the brakes going forward or backward the front frame would make an audible "CLUNK" with obvious movement. Upon inspection it was determined that...
