[QUOTE="calypso428, post: 68426, member: 9027"] Port, Last year I was lucky enough to find a good deal on a running 743 ... mines like a 91' model with 2850 hrs .... It was in pretty rough shape but with a little elbow grease, some new parts, hydro lines , and of course GREAT advice from everyone on this forum , it runs great ! I own cattle farms and had no idea just how much I could use this machine for . I use it for clearing out woods and trails and downed trees with the grapple ... I have used the bucket to clean out the pens in our cattle shipping barn, light grading work. I have stacked huge 7 foot bales of hay and loaded trailers and just all kinds of hard work. Its a really heavy lifter, well balanced , tough , easy-ish to work on and many parts are available since there are so many of these still in use today around the world... Go for it! I don't think your going to be able to put a larger engine in it but anythings possible. [/QUOTE]
