Blades all tight? If you haven’t found anything in the gearbox there’s not really anywhere else to lookMixer wagon making a strange grinding noise when full. Had auger out yesterday and found bolts that hold gearbox in slack, tightened them all up, thought we'd fixed it. This morning same noise again. So into gearbox, still haven't found anything obvious. Replacing 2 main bearings when in there.
Anyone had anything similar with mixer gearbox/auger making strange noises when full?
Trying to get it before it does further damage.

Thats only top half of box, don't know if we're brave enough to go into bottom. Only other thing could be is drive shafts. Its twin auger so shaft to backs a fair length. Doesn't feel to be any slack in them though.Blades all tight? If you haven’t found anything in the gearbox there’s not really anywhere else to look

Will have a look. Its bound to be something simple. It wasn't mixing properly, so dad welded bits of metal onto it mad max style!Have you taken a look on the floor inside the wagon?
We had a grinding noise at a certain point when the auger was turning, and when I opened the door I could see that there was a piece of the metal ring that joins the floor panels together had curled up
The pusher at the bottom of the auger was going over this and making the grinding noise.
Worth a look.

It does mix much better now but bound to have caused problem.

Just hanging them up to lose the kinks. They're too long for hand and elbow.wrap them around the hand and elbow to get tidy loops but other than that tidy sockets

Dad used to coil everything up but it just added time to unrolling them.
These might be tied to a couple of skyhooks / overhead supports.
