Massey 135 Swept Axle. I put a loader on it year and half ago. When I did that I took the axle support to a machine shop and had them put new bushings and pivot pin in it. Since then I've put about 40 hours on it. I noticed this spring the rear bushing was working its way out. Pulled the support off and with a BFH smacked the pivot pin out. To my surprise all the bushings and the pivot pin were gouged really bad, as you can see in the picture below of the front bushing. I was planning on using some JB Weld to get the rear bushing to stick but wasn't expecting this much wear on the inside of the bushings after only 40 hours of use. What would cause the bushings to gouge this badly from so little use? Does fine dirt and stones work in there and do that? How do you prevent it from happening? Very frustrated.
