[QUOTE="Fishfiles, post: 60035, member: 782"] I really think the other end of the spectrum of wired up JSC , Bobcat lost the edge it had over other brands , early models were reliable , priced right and owner maintance freindly , the new models don't compete on cost of initial purchase , require more costly repairs and it seems to me they must skimp on structual quailty cause the pins , bushings , rollers , idlers doesn't hold up as well , I see a lot of broken booms and bobtack plates ---------- if you have to replace a bushing in your steering pintle or fine tune a neutral travel problem it is cost effient and something an owner /operator can do on his own , a new JSC monitor will alert you a code for a steering actuator problem , changing it no problem but calibrating it with the home owner method seldom works out and a trip to the dealer to calibrate it on the laptop is needed , but wait you can't load it up cause the bucket won't get off the ground [/QUOTE]
