20201102 - This is the SECOND FAILURE of the differential lock on the BX25 in 2540 hours. As one can easily see, the leverage on these FOUR tiny pins, which are less than 1/3 the cross section of the wheel bolts, is enormous, carrying maybe 10 times the torque as each wheel does. THIS design is totally inadequate considering the function of the FEL, with a backhoe for ballast on the rear.
Watch my other videos on the diff-lock, including modifying the 10mm pins to 12mm. A simple fix that provides 40% greater cross-sectional strength.
