bucket repair....line boring

Hey folks.

I have a Ford 4500 with a 755 hoe mounted.

The bucket is in poor repair with the pin holes severely wallowed out. I am planning to replace the plate on the back? of the bucket and fabricate new mounts for the pin bushings.

My plan is to start with a piece of plate, probably 1.25in and cut the holes for the pin bushings, cut the shape I need for the whole piece and then weld this piece to the bucket.

My question is could I cut my parts, assemble the whole thing on the dipper...

Galion T-500 Grade O Matic

I have a Galion T-500 Grade O Matic . I am trying to find out if they used the same transmissions in the Grade O Matic's and what type of transmission is in it. Also need to know what type of fluid I would use? I can drive it in high speed, high range but the slightest hill will slow it down to nothing. Same thing in the high range low speed. Any help on what to look for. I have a Case tractor with the Case O Matic that acts the same way when it's low on fluid

I have a lease 420F backhoe. Got it last Friday. It is real nice , loaded with electronics almost too much. It developed a problem after about 4 hours of use.

It does have a FnR rocker switch on the loader control which I could get use to. The hood is very wide compared to my 416C. Digging power is good , cycle...

1988 Cat 953 - Caterpillar. My First Track Loader

Using my cat 953 track loader, mini excavator, and skid steer to repair a dam.

Cat 953 was recently purchased to move dirt, brush, level off stuff the skid steer struggled with.

So far It has been a great machine. When turning on the dam the rear of the loader is hanging over the lake. The holes being repaired are deep, big and steep. Pretty much straight down 10 to 12 feet. Not much room to work.

Counterweight Cost

There has been a change in plans, and I have a crane operator wanting to charge extra for adding additional counterweights. Three additional counterweights at about 22,000 pounds each are needed. I can understand the additional mobilization/transportation costs, but I don't know how much these would be for a rental rate? Can anyone help me with this? Even the full cost of counterweights this size would be helpful.

Thanks.

The emission control system is one of my concerns. Is this something to be concerned about/will involve trips to the dealer? The machine is a JD 60G in case that makes a difference. Would also appreciate feedback on this machine if someone is running one. Thanks.

JD310C - hydraulic pump identification

Any documentation available regarding the type of hydraulic pump in a 310C. Based on my manuals and s/n 753+ I'm able to determine its a Sundstrand Sauer pump with attached steering pump.

I understand more information is stamped on the pump but i was hoping to do research before I have to dismantle...there has to be more info available....any help would be appreciated.

I am looking at purchasing a Case 1450B dozer. The guy is selling it for a reasonable price but he hasn't ran it for 5 years. He quit using it because it stopped turning left.

Why do Demo bids vary in price so much?

Solved Cummins starting problem...Hurray

I bought a 94 Ford L9000 dump truck with an M11 and it would start right up but would lose prime and quit after about 30 seconds. Then it had to crank for about 20 seconds to get fuel and be good for the rest of the day but usually needed a boost. I put a Baldwin filter on made especially for Cummins and it didn't solve the problem. Another guy using the truck said he gave it a little throttle after starting and it kept running. I got a couple new batteries because the old ones would drop...

I did a Google search which lead me to a thread here where someone who had just purhased a backhoe identical to mine was looking for the same info. Oddly enough, it WAS ME.... Years ago when I bought it... That made me laugh. (And yes, all the info I...

I have a Genie S60 2001 year model that shakes/shudders when extending the boom. Now here is some details: all wear pads have been replaced or shimmed to tolerance, it does not shudder when boom is raised above horizontal, it does not shudder when retracting at any time no matter the boom position. So is it a hydraulic problem? Is the boom bent/twisted? We use this machine daily and the problem just kind of started one day. I cannot seem to nail it down. Machine is serviced regularaly with...

JLG 450A Telescoping boom hose replacement

Gents,

Long story short: My tenant was in the process of replacing the hoses on the telescoping boom of his 450A when he suddenly passed away last November. I finally had the chance to try and finish the job so I can use the lift and ready it so his wife can sell it, and I'm having a heck of a time snaking the hoses through the boom. Is there any "easy" way or recommended procedure on doing this. I've been trying all day, even trying to pull the old ones through with the backhoe...

Thanks,...

JLG 450 AJ safety question

As I get a little older, I have gotten more cautious. I have often wondered what would happen if a hydraulic line to the main boom, secondary boom or jib were to burst, would the lift just crash to the ground or (as I hope) is there a sufficient back-up system where I don't need to worry about this. The hoses all look good but this question still enters my mind often.

1988 Cat 953 - Caterpillar. My First Track Loader

Using my cat 953 track loader, mini excavator, and skid steer to repair a dam.

Cat 953 was recently purchased to move dirt, brush, level off stuff the skid steer struggled with.

So far It has been a great machine. When turning on the dam the rear of the loader is hanging over the lake. The holes being repaired are deep, big and steep. Pretty much straight down 10 to 12 feet. Not much room to work.

Takeuchi TB135 Installation and checkout of thumb.

I have a Takeuchi TB135, 2007 year, Purchased a thumb and have a couple of questions, how do I check and adjust the auxiliary hydraulic pressure? The instructions say to adjust the pressure to 1700 psi, where would I find the adjustment? The machine has a valve on one of the auxiliary lines but only on one side of the boom, the other side is just capped off, should there be a valve on both sides? Any information, help or suggestions greatly appreciated, Patrick

Hitachi EX55UR

Having an issue with my mini excavator. Blew a hydraulic line in the boom. Repaired it and now it seems to be starving for power. The pump seems to be taxed under light operation. The only "normal" function is the left track. That seems to be working as it always did. Everything else seems to be weak. Changed the smaller fluid filter which was quite dirty and the larger looked pretty clean. Any ideas???? Thanks in advance. Scott

How do I wire in blue charge wire in truck end.

My dump trailer has a green LED light in it that shows when the hoist battery is being charged from the tow vehicle. Neither my F350 or F550 charge thru the 7 pin flat blade connector. I know the trailer charger works because when I hook up the Chevrolet 1/2 ton the green light glows. The F550 has had the plug added and it does not have the blue hot charge wire at all.

Got my fingernails under the edges and it pulled out a bit and retracted like it was spring loaded.

D6N can not swim

A year ago a neighbor buried his 200 class Komatsu excavator. I can't find the post now to add to it, but he had the counterweight sunk so deep it would not build oil pressure.

A month or two ago in a spot less than 100 yards of where the excavator was stuck he took his newer D6N that he bought a couple months earlier swimming. He had ditched a trail and then plugged it to try to dry it up enough downstream for him to do some...

580K Hyd leak above right swing cylinder

I have a Case 580K and there is a steel hydraulic line above the right swing cylinder that has worn a flat spot and is starting to leak. It looks like, at some point in its past it got flattened on the lower side by the swing cylinder.

I have only had the machine for a year and have used it very carefully, and can't see anywhere that I have rubbed the cylinder. Regardless, it is leaking and I need to fix it.

Is there a fix I can do that will get the pipe out of the way of the cylinder?...

While I don't do stuff near as cool as most of you I figured I'd start showing what I do on a regular basis.

We run a D11N, D7R, D5G, D65, Steiger 485 HD with two 19 yard pans, two 210 Linkbelts, 110 SD roller, champion grader, 627B and a couple water trucks. I do all the service work and 99% of the repairs. Just did steering...
