Kubota excavator track/idler issue after working around rocks — what happened here and how serious is it?

Hi everyone,

I was helping a friend with some work, and his Kubota excavator ended up in this condition after working around a lot of rocks. He was pretty upset because he thinks this is going to be an expensive repair and may require towing the machine out.

I don’t know much about excavators, but after looking at it visually, it doesn’t seem like anything obviously snapped in half. I’m attaching a few pictures and hoping someone more experienced can tell us what likely happened here, how bad it is, and what would be needed to get it repaired and back to work.

I also don’t know the exact model, only that it’s a Kubota excavator.

Any help is appreciated.

Broken LED backlight connector on TV while replacing strips — need help

TV model :LG 55LB7200
Hey everyone, I’m trying to replace the LED backlight strips in my TV, but I broke the connector while working on it. I’m pretty new to this, but I do have some tools and I’d like to try fixing it myself if possible.
From what I can tell, it looks like a multi-pin connector on the backlight harness/LED strip. I’m not sure of the exact name for it, so I’m having trouble finding the right replacement part.
What would be the proper way to repair this?
