I had a bearing failure today at our comp.. I cause the really small gear to become just a shaft and 2 of the 3 bearings are just chuncks of steel rings. Other than the bearings failing the crawler has been a tank!!! Very strong and can handle the binding of handwound 45t with easy. Just a bummer the bearings are a week link |
