[QUOTE="Robbiem, post: 88851, member: 12775"] Hello all, I've been looking for a good site for skidsteer discussion, there's a lot less information out there than other topics I'm interested in. I had a Thomas T173hl for a while that I got from my neighbor. I didn't like not being able to get parts for it. Also it had the v2203b engine my neighbor had created a mess putting a ford 3 wire alternator on it. Overcharging, not charging, even with a new factory alt and volt reg I couldn't get to charge right. After that I bought my current machine. It's a 2006 Deere CT322, I've had it for about a year now. Did a full service and I am in the middle of replacing all the pins and bushings in the front. Waiting on new ones, I was really relieved for all the old ones to come out pretty easily. The tracks are about 30%, I am trying to decide between going back with 13" or switching to the 16" tracks. Historically I usually say bigger is better. I do side jobs with it sometimes but don't really advertise, just friends and family. Mostly just use it around the house. I wouldn't mind stepping it up though. I have the urge to upgrade to a pilot comtrol high flow machine just because they are cooler. Probably don't need it though. Anyway I hope to be able to find some good info here and also help others if I can. [/QUOTE]
