    NH LS120 v. Bobcat 463

    Thanks for the reply, charger. Wonder if I can stuff the B&S 35 hp or the new 38hp Kohler in there?

    NH LS120 v. Bobcat 463

    Anybody out there racking up some hours on a NH LS120 or L250? How about the NH LS120 v. Bobcat 463 for the skid steer heavyweight title-good points, bad points, problems or praises? Yes, I'm aware this is a gas v. diesel comparison. We need one of these behemoths in our little fleet and we...

    tractor or loader tires on a skid steer

    anybody ever put tractor or loader tires on their skid steer? At one time you could bolt up the tires from a Case 580 loader onto a 95XT skid steer. We need more ground clearance and better mudding ability. Anyone running a 12.5/80-18? Anybody put 14-17.5 tires on a skid steer with 12-16.5? If...

    763 is it a good machine

    Kinda light for land clearing. You never want to use any machine at its operational limits day in and day out. Just won't last-no matter what the brochure says. An old boy told me years ago, when it comes to equipment, "I'd rather ride the big horse" He was right!

    smaller tires with tracks?

    I'm looking at running the Mclaren Magnum tracks on my S220 Bobcat for better digging/pushing power in mud and sand. I'm concerned about the driveline wear, loader arm clearance and the weight of the tracks with the machine's limited horsepower in deep mud and sand. What would happen if I...

    Which would you choose....Turbo-saw or 14" tree shear?

    I've used the Bobcat brushsaw and a 20" Tree terminator tree shear and the shear wins hands down. Shear strengths: mechanical simplicity, cheaper to own and operate, doesn't throw debris, built hell-for-stout, runs on standard flow, very little maintenance, might outlast the machine The shear is...

    mini loader attachment plates

    Problem 1) Somebody please help me sort out what fits on what. I'm looking at purchasing a used Bobcat 463 or New Holland LS-125 and renting attachments as needed. My best source of rental attachments in my area would be the Toro or Bobcat dealers. The Toro dealer, by far, has the largest number...

    BRUSHCAT VS. FLAIL

    The Bobcat attachments are for grass and light brush only. Sounds like you need a Tushogg or FAE which require hi-flow and a door on the cab. Rotary cutters blow mulchers away as far as speed but tend to leave shreds instead of chips. Rocks will detroy any attachment over time or at least keep...

    steering issue on A220

    Recently purchased a used A220 and took it to the local Bobcat dealer for what i thought was a steering problem. Steering is jerky through the steering range in either direction. By jerky I mean it is a ratcheting or stuttering type of movement-not smooth at all. Dealer, after 3 days, says this...
