I have a very good Cat40 bolt to bench for installing tools but it is a nasty job to bolt the cat40 back into the spindle.
If I could get access I’d pull the whole mess and replace (ideally). The stack is 105 washers so not too expensive. I’ll climb up on top and take another good look down the bore and see if there is any hope. > On Mar 19, 2024, at 1:12 PM, BRIAN GLACKIN <glackin.br...@gmail.com> wrote: > > The mining industry uses these washer stacks to secure replaceable wear > plates in Jaw crushers.
