D8 2u

the part # is 2A1025 cat still has them 100 dollars per link i know i just picked
up 6

Eric, I have the links but could only find 5 but I'm sure the other one is somewhere. I will trade you the links for a 2U23,000 oil clutch cover and the left side CCU unit lever.

Attached are some pics of the links and oil clutch floor board.

do they go bad? how do you know when to change? are they are the same for all d13000's? i got 'em on my genset and was wondering. unit has 8000 hours on it.
thanks.

The ones on ours seemed to just rot. The Cat sat outside under a bunch of pine trees without the cover on for about 10 years before I got it.

Hi ag-mike,
Yes, they go bad.....dry out and crack and become brittle....sort of like old tires.

If the flwheel (engine) is not lined up correctly with the drive shaft it,s very hard on the links also.

I replaced all the links on my 2U in the spring. The upper bell housing has some hidden bolts, other than that it's about a 10 or 12 hr job. I have a cab that made it harder to work do to lack of space. If you have any questions I can answer them..

I crawled under cat & pulled bottom 1/2 of bell off & replaced links in bout 2 hr from start to finish- hardest part is putting bell back up by hand- got my links from grace track service in Elkhart Ia - were bout $250 for set 2 year ago- they have been bought out since so don't know what they are called now or their prices- but may be worth a ck..
