Hey all, looks like I am going to have to change the water pump on my skid. I am not sure weather to try and remove it without removing the radiator and oil cooler or just go in from the side and leave the OC and radiator alone. Anyone done this before on this model? Any advise will be welcome. Tim

Hi guys, anybody got any ideas where I might look to get a better price on new drive sprockets and chains for my early L190 skid steer? I am going to need 4 driven sprockets, 2 drive sprockets and 4 chains. Any help will be appreciated Thanks, Tim

Thanks Mike10, for some reason I cannot answer my own post:( Anyway I appreciate your response Tim

I just removed the final drive chain on my L190 that I busted yesterday. It looks like the side plates on one link busted. The machine has 1380 hours on it. Can I add a master link and put it back together or should I just replace the chain? The sprockets look okay as far as I can tell without...

Hi guys, I have a 2007 New Holland L190 Skidloader (early model) that has a cab with heat and ac, a hydraulic attach plate and auxiliary hydraulics. The machine has a little over 1000 hrs on it. Is it possible to add a hi-flow aux circuit to this machine? I would like to run a forestry mulcher...

I borrowed a 12X16.5 tire and rim from my dealer and mounted it on my skid in place of the 14X17.5 that was on it. The clearance between the casing and the chain case with the larger tires was 2.6". The clearance with the smaller tire was 4.3". Tracks plus says that you have to have at least 3"...

Ken, I borrowed a 12X16.5 tire and rim from my dealer today. Tomorrow I will mount it up and see what kind of clearance I have. I will report back in case there is any interest. Tim

I got out yesterday afternoon and measured between the tire casings of my 14X17.5 and the chain case on my NH 190 and had 2.6" of clearance. I only need another .4" to get the 3" I need to run tracks without spacers. I guess I will go to my dealer and see if I can borrow a 12X16.5 tire and rim...

I just bought a used NH L190 with 14X17.5 tires on it. I would like to run some steel tracks on it but in order to keep it where it will fit on my trailer, I will have to go to 12X16.5's. I am wondering what the clearance from the sidewall of the 12X16.5 tires to the chain box cover is. If it is...

Hey Guys, I rented a Rhino SM60 from my local equipment rental stores yesterday. This was mostly for a test, but I also had some paying work to do with it. I mounted it on the front of my NH L190 (low flow). I mowed about 2 acres at home that hadn't been mowed for a year. This machine was...

The reason for foaming the tires is to prevent stubble from poking up through the tracks and puncturing the tires. I have a set of Mclaren tracks for my L170 and have had trouble with this problem before. I have not ever used one of these cutters before but it seems to me that they would tend to...

I am considering purchasing a rotary mower to attach to my skid steer. I have watched the videos and looked at some specs, I would appreciate opinions from any of you that have experience with this attachment. I have a side business doing mowing/shredding and brush control. There places that I...

Wow, thanks Ken, sounds like you have had extensive experience with the tracks. Thanks for the recommendation. For me, lighter is better as long as they will hold up well. Tim

Has anybody tried the OTT tracks from Tracks Plus? Opinions? Thanks, Tim

Well I pulled the trigger on the L190 Skid steer. Dealer says he will have all the issues cleared up and it will be ready for me to pick up Thursday I asked him about a warranty, and he threw in a 90 day power train warranty. I also picked up a 36" auger and a 6' extension (already had the auger...
