Replace CRACKED End on Equalizer Bar for CAT D10 Dozer | Welding Fabrication

We need to replace a cracked end on an Equalizer Bar for a Caterpillar D10 Dozer! This equalizer bar is off an older model machine which commonly fail and crack through the grease ports of the bar ends. So to avoid the crack happening again we are going to replace the end with a new one that we made in a previous video! First we cut off the broken end of the equalizer bar using our UniMig straight line gas cutter and also bevel cut to weld prep the shank. We then fit, align and tack weld on the new bar end before setting it up in our power tilt welding positioner for easy rotating as we weld the end on. After the welding is complete we make it look pretty using our 9” inch angle grinder and grinding discs. To complete the job we use our Sir Meccanica WS2 portable line boring machine to finish bore the end to suit a new bearing.
