[QUOTE="HughF, post: 134113, member: 23802"] So, I bought an old 960 from a tractor dealer here in the UK... £6k delivered, which seemed the going rate for a skid steer over this side of the pond. Tyres are good, bucket is usable, starts and drives. 3800hrs. [ATTACH]6292[/ATTACH] It spent it's early life driving a road planer so has Hi-flow hydraulics on an electrically driven solenoid valve under the footplate. Regular 3rd spool valve outlets also piped up: [ATTACH]6293[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6294[/ATTACH] Within 24hrs of taking delivery I had got it sunk up to it's belly in my field, which then necessitated some work with a tractor, a tirfor winch and a few evenings to haul it out: I have since purchased some McLaren over-tyre tracks for it. [ATTACH]6295[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6296[/ATTACH] I've fitted a new fuel filter, sorted out the wiring which was a mess, and given it a general going over. Seems like an honest machine. Hoping to put it to good work in the confines of my barn where I can't get my tractor. [ATTACH]6297[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6298[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6299[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
