Actually its not used every day. We bought this long ago to do some development work on our own land and for our own use only. Its paid for itself in that regard. So time isnt of the esscense here, but I do know what you were thinking and if it was used every day you would have a valid point.
Just buy the PROPER size pins, and don't look back!

They get greased daily, but the machine doesnt get babied. It pushes a lot of stumps and levels rocky ground. Will the .004 take out bushings a lot faster or wear out the frame holes? I cant really see the frame holes being an issue, as like I said, we cant even push the old pins out. Theres nothing rusty there, its like the pins grew, or were assembled with a press.
Why would you grease daily if it wasn't used daily?
