Hey everyone,

My team and I have been working on a project we call Skid Sync — it’s a universal wireless control box for skid steer attachments. The goal is to make switching between different brands of attachments way easier, without having to mess with harness swaps or rewire machines.

We just posted a short video showing how it works here:

👉 www.skid-sync.com/how-skid-sync-works

We’ve been testing it on various brands and attachments, and it’s been working great so far. Curious what you guys think — especially anyone who runs rental fleets or deals with different machines/attachments every day.

Not here to spam, just wanted to share what we’ve been building and get some honest feedback from people who live this stuff.

Thanks,

Mike @ Skid Sync
 
I remember seeing you guys on HowIDidIt with your very first iteration of this.

You still doing TechTalk?

I’ve been missing them lately.

I’m still on the fence about buying the Bobcat software. I know it would pay for itself just by being able to avoid one field tech visit.

The box we have on the website now vs. that one in the video is such a huge leap, i always laugh when I see that old thing 🤣 We stopped doing techtalk when i had my baby, and started skid sync around the same time. Just too busy. You are completely right about that too, some calls i go out to could have saved themselves a grand easy by having their own software!
 
Just wanted to add a bit more context since a lot of you have checked this out.

We originally built Skid Sync for contractors and operators who deal with the headache of running different attachments across multiple machines — the wiring and plug styles never match, and it turns into a half-day project just to get everything working.

The universal wireless control box was our first solution to simplify all that — no extra harnesses, no machine rewiring, just plug it in and go.

We’re also working on prototypes for joystick-integrated controls that tie into the same system, but right now the focus is on getting these universal boxes into more hands and hearing feedback from real users.

Curious how many of you have had to deal with the wiring or plug mismatch problem — that’s what started this whole project for us.
