Caterpillar D8 Ripper Repair shank uses (3 x 6Y3394 Pin & 3 x 8E4743 Retainer)

This Caterpillar D8 ripper repair shank is a replacement component for compatible D8 dozer ripper assemblies. Cross-referenced to OEM part number 8E8418, it is designed to restore the working connection within the ripper system where an existing shank has become worn, damaged or unsuitable for continued service.

Ripper shanks are used in demanding ground-engaging work, including breaking compacted soil, hard ground, rock and other difficult materials before excavation or grading. A sound repair shank helps maintain the strength, alignment and dependable operation of the ripper assembly during heavy-duty earthmoving, quarrying and construction applications.

This repair shank uses three 6Y3394 pins and three 8E4743 retainers as part of the fixing arrangement. Confirm that these locking components, along with the required ripper tooth and tip, are compatible with your existing Caterpillar D8 ripper setup before placing an order.

Before ordering, compare the OEM reference 8E8418, existing shank dimensions, mounting points and pin locations with your current component. Correct fitment is essential for secure installation and safe operation. Inspect pins, retainers, tip and adjoining ripper components at the same time, replacing worn or damaged items as required.
