Statement of Work: Repairs are needed to all the pins and bushings that control the steering and bucket on Front end Loader units N4505424. This unit is used for snow operations and as a result of frequent use and continued salt and sand exposure the pins have corroded and the bushings have worn out. The unit will need to be split apart for the articulation pins/bushings to be replaced and the bucket arms will need to be disassembled for the loader and pivot arm pins/bushings to be replaced. The unit will need to be inspected at NAVFAC PWD Great Lakes once repairs are completed. Background: On 10/27/2022 Front end Loader N4505424 was brought in to PWD Great Lakes to assess their condition prior to the PM. Once the repairs were identified the PWD reached out to the OEM manufacturer John Deere who recommended the local OEM dealer in Great Lakes for the repairs. The repairs need to be completed by a John Deere certified dealer in order to maintain the warranties related to this unit.
