    where to buy tires ?

    I find ebay my best source for skid steer tires. A lot cheaper than getting them at a tire shop. But you will have to take them to a tire shop to mount them. Unless you have the tools and expertise to do it yourself. You have to look at all of them to get the best deal

    2005 john deere 250,

    I have another thought. In the top two positions in the fuse box the fuses look different. They are not fuses even though they look like them. They are diodes, they only allow the electricity to flow one way. If they are put in backwards or are bad then the computer will not allow some of...

    743 put in new ujoints sounds like something in bind. Can the key to the spline an adaptor be worn out

    I had a problem with a 642. I put in a different engine and had a hard time getting the alignment correct. It sounded like it was in a bit of a bind. I finally solved it by putting in an extra set of washers under the mounts and that saved it. If you forgot to put the washers between the...

    863 bobcat side steer won’t turn over and no power to cab

    Also if you have to replace alternator get a one wire one. Then you don't need to worry about the sensor wire. you just run the one wire out of it to battery side of starter or to battery and make sure it has a good ground. I have done this a few times and it solved the problems I was having...

    Need help identifying this 1990 bobcat skid steer

    Also the only reason to remove the id plate is if it was stolen sometime in its past. Tire size 600 and 700 both used 10/16.5 the 800 series used 12/16.5

    Need help identifying this 1990 bobcat skid steer

    If it has only three injectors it is probably a 600 series. A lot of times the serial number is also stamped under the seat. I have seen tags or stamped numbers about where the brake lever is.

    753 lift and tilt

    A few months later and I have it fixed. I talked to someone who knew what happened. An employee of the former owner poured some type of concrete additive in the hydraulic tank. Guess he was angry. Anyway it solidified and plugged up the filters. I ended up taking most of the hoses off and...

    753 lift and tilt

    I don't think he knew something had been put in the system. He said it quit moving and the lift and tilt quit working also. He did not have the knowledge or tools to fix it. He had the Bobcat dealer look at it but when he found out what they wanted to fix it he put it up for sale.
