ASV RT135 Track Bogie Wheel Axle Repair
ASV RT135 Track Bogie Wheel Axle Repair
The ASV 135 undercarriage is prone to snapping the bogie idler mounts at the track frame. This kit slides a solid 4140 steel shaft into the tubing and allows the end user to weld in a solid repair.
Begin the repair by removing both factory mounts from the track frame and grinding them for a full penetration weld to the new shaft.
The shaft ends are tapped 3/4-10 and grade 8 bolts are included with hardened washers. Every piece of tubing has a large range of dimensional tolerance, so the end user will need to clearance the shaft for a press fit into the factory square tubing. The factory weld seam may also need to be clearanced. The outer plates of the mounts will need a 3/4" hole drilled on center.
Confirm the outer plates have 15 1/16" distance between them once welded.
