[QUOTE="calypso428, post: 65665, member: 9027"] Heres an update : Finally got around to pressure washing , it took me 2 and a half hours but it looks much better , almost completely clean! Also I got into the compartment below the radiator and cleaned out the second rats nest , its AMAZING how much cooler it runs now I can tell a huge difference ! Then I changed the oil, and all of the filters (oil, fuel, hydro). And I found a root grapple that wasn't too far away, brand new 48 incher with a single cylinder , hooked it up and the auxiliaries worked flawlessly ! New seat, new handles on controls, and new boots at the bottom of the steering arms ! Got a chance to work the grapple for a couple of hours to get the feel for how its supposed to be used and I was very impressed , im going to be able to do so so much with it ! Couldn't be happier with my project ... In the process of trying to grease all of the loader fittings and about 3/4 of them wouldn't take grease , I even tried working the lift up and down but no luck ... So I guess I need to try replacing the grease fittings and cleaning out the little hole it fits into ? Where can I buy the replacement fittings ? Is that something I can buy at a local automotive place ? Thanks again for all the help ! Tee - [/QUOTE]
