I have an LS G3038H with the discontinued LL3601 loader. I can't take the excess slop in the loader pins any longer and decided to try to fix them. The pins are okay but the holes are all wallered out. I took it apart and noticed that this loader doesn't have replaceable bushings like other brands do. After weighing my options I bought some reamers and plan to ream the pin holes a little larger and make some off sized pins. The top pin holes are 1". I plan to ream to 1-1/8" and the lower pins are 1-1/4" and I plan to ream them to 1-3/8". I ordered some alloy round steel stock in both 1-1/8" and 1-3/8" and will start reaming when I receive the stock.
Does anyone have any other suggestions before I start tearing into this? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
