Reply to ccjersey:
check the powershaft to the controls before you buy. If the blade controls operate, the shaft is ok. Later models of the 9T had a shear pin to protect the shaft, earlier models didn't๐ฎ
If you buy it, check out the steering box early on, they are expensive and getting scarcer if you have to have one because your's bearings went out and you broke the worm (CAT want's $1200 for a new worm). I started to do ours, but incorrectly figured "if it ain't broke don't fix it"๐ฎ We have one on it now that was adapted from a larger grader I belive.
I have a 212 grader with a broken power shaft. Any one have one for sale?
I knew the shaft was broken when I purchased it, some one had replaced the shear pin with a grade 8 bolt, the rest is history
I would like any information on the steering box that was used on your 212,
So far my steering box is ok, but never know when it may go bad.
Thanks
