11/23-27 Piston Removal Cat 3500


Pulled a piston out of the Cat 3500. Our assignment was to fill out a sheet of measurements for the cylinder that we picked. The measurements for the connecting rod itself was interesting because my partner and I discovered that the diameter between the connecting rod cap and the rod itself was out of round beyond specification. The tolerance allowed +/- .0006", but measured at +.001" over the specification, or +.0004 beyond the tolerance allowed. This gave me a pretty cool perspective of the how strict the specifications truly are for this industry.
