Default Re: Stahl dozer gear boxes and drive motors

Hi, wow, thanks for the help. I checked out the first 2 links about the gearbox/motor. I do have the exact motor that you suggested.

I see that that other guy that had a problem with his dozer, he had a burned out motor and just replaced the motor an not the gearbox. If my gearboxes were good, the motor swap would be pretty simple. But it is the weird set up of the gearbox/motor attaching to the chassis of the dozer in between the motor and gearbox. The existing gearbox is nothing I have ever seen. So nothing will line up.

After reading the thread that you provided, the other person was talking about something on the pinion gear and that gave me an idea. If you read some of my earlier thread, I mentioned that if I was to get this mounted, the gear mesh would not be a full mesh. So my idea was to slide the pinion motor out a tad, maybe a 16th of an inch. Then there would be a better mesh. If I did so, since is so small and there is not a grub screw to tighten the pinion gear to the shaft, would I use a some type of adhesive to adhere the pinion gear back to the motor shaft?
