Bobcat 2400 renovation project

[estoniamember]

Not a skidsteer but I am sure this is the best place to discuss it. Renovating a circa year 1990, Bobcat 2400 frame steer Bobcat loader. Reputation as a right piece of junk by all accounts. Currently located in Estonia. Loads needed fixing up on it but getting started now finally. Came with a detachable backhoe. Good Perkins 4236. Not many still running I guess. Are there any other fellow sufferers out there ? Will post some photos of project if anyone interested?

Many thanks antfarmer2 for the offer of the assistance regarding manual. I managed to track one down on line after paying about €10 to download it so I am all good there. Excellent comprehensive manuals as usual from Bobcat. I hope to get it up and running within the next 4 weeks depending on time available. Have sorted out most of the leaks. Now mostly pins, hydraulics, cooling and electrics to deal with. Its an ugly yoke and a borderline worthwhile project but I am hoping it will surprise me. Lets see.
