PROBLEM

Show/hide table

While operating the front bucket, the shim at the loader tower can press against the existing 128-7902 Spacer and prevent the existing 364-0575 Plate Assembly from rotating on certain F-Series Backhoe Loaders. This can cause the 3636738/">363-6738 Pipe Assembly (Kickout Rod) to break.
