I have an MTD 20 ton splitter (same unit as Troy-Bilt, Cub, etc) and it seems I need to replace the two gibs on the ram assembly; MTD part number 781-0351. A friend of mine works in a metal shop and said he could cut me a few of these, but needs the exact dimensions and type of steel.
Since mine are so worn down, I don't know if I would have the correct size; it seems that they are 2" long, and 5/8" square. Looking at the ram assembly where the two gibs are located, it seems they could actually be a bit bigger, like 3/4" square to give more wear time.
Anyone have any experience with replacing theirs? I would just order some, but they seem expensive for just a piece of soft steel and if I can get them for free, then hell yea!
