Eagle Loader - new axles

[Rimrock]

I put out some pictures of my project fabricating new axles for my friends Eagle Dozer. Original axles where eating bearings for breakfast, lunch and dinner, so enough was enough.
I did modify some fully CNC machined aftermarket 1:Tamiya truck axles, that are made with a much higher precision than the original casted loader axles. And in addition they have bigger more solid gears, also precision machined. These are the axles I clearly prefer when building my own trucks, durable to a good price.
Needed to machine off 7-8 mm on each side of the axles. Did fabricated some connection brackets between new axles and the existing hubs. The existing shafts from diff to hubs/planetary gears fits the new axle as is. A bit more complicated to make the rear axle because of the support setup, so needed to make some more new parts there.
Finally the loader is moving longer than across the living room floor before bearing failure, at least)
