    First skidsteer

    Update: for anyone interested, I replaced the fuel pump and the engine seems to have straightened out. Runs good now. I have an oil filter on the way for Monday at which point I will change the oil. Next I'll check the hydraulic fluid and fix the front sway bar link.

    First skidsteer

    So I finally bought my first skidsteer. It appears to be a 1970 international 3200a. It needs a little tinkering (fuel pump leaks, choke sticks, sediment in the tank and one of the sway bar links is broken.) If anyone has information they want to share about it let me know. I picked it up for 2k.

    IH 3200a

    Hello, So I found an IH 3200a skid steer/backhoe for sale and I was wondering if anyone can tell me anything about these odd looking machines. I think it's a 1970s machine with the Wisconsin v4 in it. To be clear this thing has a factory, removable backhoe on the BACK of it with a regular...

    Well, I'll admit. I don't have a garage yet. All my equipment gets tarped, especially this time of year. I have a 7k utility trailer and a 12k equipment trailer. Problem being with the equipment trailer is it's home made and the deck is almost waist high. I have a 3500HD diesel, so I think I'm...

    Help: what is this?

    I think you're dead on. It looks exactly like a m700 or a 720. Untill I get a better look at it that's what I'll run with.

    It needs a motor and some rust repair as far as I know. I still haven't committed to it. I just want to know what the heck it is before I get into a project I might not even be able to get parts for.

    I thought the same, but the back post doesn't seem to be the same as the 610?

    That looks awesome. Thank you for the input, gives me a good idea on the size machine I'll need.

    Thank you for the advice. I'm not looking for anything crazy. Just something that can move snow banks in the winter and dirt in the summer.

    I'm thinking about buying this but I have no idea what it is. Anyone have a guess? Sorry if this is the wrong place to put this. I'm new here.

    Hi, I currently don't own a skid steer but I'm thinking about buying one (used) for my business. My wife says I need to fix or get rid of some stuff first though. I joined to read about other people's equipment and to ask questions about any buy I might be considering.
