Description
Overview:
This Ram Bush (Position 7) is a Non Genuine Part for JCB mini excavators, designed to restore smooth movement at hydraulic ram mounting points. It is a robust, machined metal bush that sits between the ram eye and the pin, helping to centre the load, reduce play, and protect adjoining components from wear. Built for regular site use, it supports the high side loads and shock typical of digging and lifting tasks. Suitable for JCB 8008 and 8014 CTS machines, it offers a dependable, maintenance-friendly replacement when the original bush becomes worn or oval. The precise sizing helps maintain correct pin fit, improves machine feel, and can reduce noise and vibration, supporting reliable operation across excavation, landscaping, and utility work.
