Default I Broke This
Guess this rod from the Cummins motor in the 550 tonne Hitachi excavator thought it was time to have a vacation.

I have the gudgeon pin as a souvenir. Bigger than my fist and weighs 1-2Kg.







Feel free to post your "I broke this big ass bit of gear" events here.

No. Didn't come out but the hole was big enough to pull it out with a little wriggling. I didn't retrieve it. It was still to frigging hot for me to touch. Gudgeon pin was on the engine room floor.
