    The noise happens when I start the unit with the brakes engaged. I have to move the T-bar around to get the starter to fully engage to start the unit. After finally starting, the unit does not track straight in relation to the T-bar orientation. Thanks,

    Not sure is this question is appropriate

    I apologize if this question is not appropriate for this forum, but: My 2005 Mustang 2054 has been a great machine for me for snow removal, but now I'm hearing some bad grinding noises from the T-bar area when starting.

    Thanks for the two responses. After looking at lots of used ones, I agree that I might need to spend a bit more (hopefully keep it below $10k) and get something with fewer hours.

    Sorry for a newbie question, but that is what I am: looking for a used skid steer to move snow at my small farm in Iowa. I'd like to spend
