[QUOTE="John12fv, post: 72907, member: 9929"] I've been wanting to get a skidsteer for a while, and would prefer a tracked model since I plan on doing mostly land-clearing and some general skidsteer work. I found a 1988 ASV Positrack with the Isuzu 4jb1 engine, I think it's an MD70, not sure though. it's not running at the moment with 3,500 hrs the owner claims (haven't seen it in person yet.) It's got aux. hookups which would be a deal-breaker for me unless it's scrap cheap. The motor, "transmission", and hydraulic pump are supposed to all be good. It needs hydraulic hoses though. I realize engine parts for these can be pricey, and that this is a loose-ended question-but considering all else, does it seem to be worth it assuming it doesn't need a new engine or some major multi-thousand $ component? I'd go with a newer tracked unit, but they're way out of my current budget. Also, what attachments would fit it, Bobcat Bobtach type? Any other info on this would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
