Had mine welded a few months back. The cracks were less than 1/8" wide, maybe 2 lineal feet total. It took the guy approximately two hours of welding/grinding to complete and cost me ~$225. He had a truck set up for welding "in the field", so I didn't have to bring it in. Worth every penny.

Thanks for the reply. I will take your information into account when shopping.

Looking into pruchasing a tiller attachment for my mid '80s 843. Any suggestions or what I should look for in a good used tiller attachment?

OOHHH YYAAAA, Dem bobcats are swell macheens. What part 'o Minneysootah are you from?

I have and 843 with the Isuzu diesel. I am very happy with the performance - using it mainly to remove snow and maintain my 5 acre property. I also have a minor hydraulic fluid leak on the auxillary connectors. I add less than a quart every few hours of run time.

Kind of looks like Fags - but it's Faqs.

It's nice to see that your time machine is working. I bet the 2040 Mustangs are pretty radical, what are they asking for them? I hope this is a sign that the US is still the US in 2040 and hasn't been taken over by the chinese.

Does a bear shit in the woods?

I picked up a mid '80's 843 a year ago w/4000 hours on it. Lots of power, no frills and very reliable. Keep looking until you find one you like in your price range.

I had a mid 70's M-700 that did a good job with the snow in Minnesota. If it was wet and heavy, I just picked up smaller loads as the heavier ones would cause the bobcat to tip forward. I have a mid 80's 843 that does a GREAT job of handling the Ohio snow - not that we have much at all here. the...

Post when you have one disintegrate and send shrapnel across your shop. If you're lucky, no one will lose an eye or worse.

I had an M-700 a few years back when I lived in MN (~Big Lake area). I found the tires were horrible in the snow and they had ~1/2 life left on them. I never had tracks back then. I now own an 843 with tracks. So far I love them. Yes, they do chew up the yard a little more, especially when you...

Try E-bay. I found the owner and service manuals for my 843 for ~ $75 shipped.

I have a 1986 843 with the Isuzu 54 hp. I also makes a fair amount of noise when operating. I do not see a loss of power, I think it's an inherent part of the normal operation.
