I replaced a John Deere mini excavator drive motor, the old one was ate up, but after it runs for 1-2 hours it loses power and won’t move unless you lift up the track, almost like as it locks up. But once it cools it’s good again. Since the aftermarket final drive comes with 1 year warranty I filed warranty and got another, this time I didn’t put it on the same side, I went the extra mile and put the working final drive motor on the opposite side. The machine does the same thing with the new motor on the opposite side. So it’s obvious the problem is with these final drives. But has anybody encountered something like this with aftermarket drives? Or does anybody know of these machines not accepting aftermarket drives?
