The document discusses redesigning the housing of a backhoe attachment that is worn out. The plan is to install a bronze bushing inside each housing and replace the metal with tool steel, which will allow just the bushing to be replaced if wear occurs again rather than the entire housing. This is expected to minimize downtime and repair costs but will have a higher initial cost due to needing to redesign five housings.

New deign for the housing.
Installed a bronze bushing inside and replace the metal type into a tool steel. I’m planning to redesign the worn-out backhoe attachment here like in the 3 rd picture. If it will oversize again, I just need to replace the bronze bushing and it will minimize the downtime and repair cost in our side. But the repair will be little bit pricy because the attachment has 5 housing with pin.
