That is what I need to know. One of the other questions I had was fitting 16.5 x 12 on the 10 inch rim. I will go with that combo. Last thing I want to do is tear up the orchard, but I want to do everything I can for good traction. I will be watching the weather too. Thanks

Hi everyone, Time for new tires on my machine. It has 10x16.5 skid tires on now, but they are quite worn and old. Main thing I am concerned about is mud when I take my bees to the almond orchard in February. Depending on the year, it can get really sloppy. I know the machine will have...

Hi everyone, On my M600, it has a CASE seat with a heavy metal frame welded to it. The seat has to weigh over 60 pounds (maybe more!), and it is a real pain getting on and off the machine. Wondering if anyone knows a good replacement seat that is lighter weight? Also wondering if a suspension...

Small world 6BNorma! I've been using your old posts to get this dang Bobcat running. I'm working on getting new solenoid/or getting the starter rebuilt. I've got it rigged now so it is safe to run, but I want it fixed right. I'll give you a call sometime when I get a free chance to talk about...

Well I hope that alternator belt stays good! I was wondering about changing the solenoid. I want to fix it ASAP, but I didn't have much of a choice at moment. I'm well aware its very unsafe, and everyone should understand this is not a smart idea to get the machine started this way. I am doing...

Hi everyone. I really appreciate all the helpful comments. I have good news and bad news. Bad news first. I couldn't get the dang nut off the start from where the wire broke. It just spins, so I'm guess the whole stud is spinning. I've tried for too many hrs trying to get it off. Good news I...

Thanks for the Tinypic advice. This is the end I am wondering about. The black wire has a large ring on it. Not sure exactly where that goes. I'm also wondering if I can just run a new wire that I broke at the starter without having to put on the whole new harness right now.

Hi everyone, I have looked on this site for quite a long time. I have a question now I'm hoping someone can help me with. I have a 1969 Bobocat (Melroe) 600. It has a Wisconsin VF4D. It is setup as a forklift, and has been used for beekeeping for many years. I'm in process of getting it back and...
