Plastic adjusting nut guide 331/22380 JCB 3CX/4CX, aftermarket

Plastic adjusting nut guide 331/22380 is an aftermarket part for the JCB 3CX and 4CX backhoe loaders. According to the product card, this part is an adjusting nut guide (plastic).

The adjusting nuts and guides of the rear stabilisers set the leg's position and clearance in its housing. Plastic or textolite nuts and guides form a sliding surface between the leg and the housing and reduce friction. A worn adjusting nut increases the clearance, the leg knocks during work and the wear pads wear faster. The adjusting nut is set with the leg fully extended and unloaded, and the leg's travel is then checked over its full length. The nut is secured with its locking element. The adjusting nut is never left unlocked. After adjustment, the leg is checked with the machine both raised and lowered.
