My L39 has developed a constant squeak when lowering/raising the Stabilizer arm when operating the backhoe. I have greased it at all positions (raised,lowerd.midway,etc). I do notice when it gets to a certain area when
raising/lowering i can see it shift .25-.50 of a inch where it attaches to the backhoe. The other stabilizer does not move at all and has "No" squeak. I talked to the dealer mechanic, he told me there are shims/bushings in that area. Im thinking one may have been left out during manufacturing process?
Or could i have bent the piston slightly? (I cant see anything noticable)
Do any of the other L39 owners notice any play/slop in that pivot area?
Or any trouble shooting ideas? Its still under warrenty, but i have to pay for pickup/delivery or at least one way.... This is "No" stepped on a mouse kind of squeak. It is LOUD!
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks
