I have a New Holland LS160. The axle bearings spun on the axle. About .005 is worn off where the bearing is on the axle. I was thinking about different ways to build it up. Have the ablity to grind it back down to spec.
I took it to a engine shop that I have used for 30 years. They thought welding it would weaken it. Said to much carbon in axle. He mentioned some loctite product that will fill in up to .030.
I have welded up and ground a lot of parts over the years and never had a problem with part failing. Would anybody have any ideas on what you would?
ps machine shop has a crankwelder and I thought it would be easier to grind than if done by stickwelding.
