Stump grinder maint.

Lately it seems as if we are constantly breaking pocket bolts on our rg 50. We are running green teeth and it seems like they just won't stay tight. We put all new pins and bushings in this spring to reduce the hopping which did help but are still having problems. At what point do I need to consider changing the wheel itself?

Is there appreciable wear? Are the pockets' mounting surfaces compromised?

On our RG85 we preemptively changed the wheel around 17-1800 hours.
