New service truck

Two years ago I got a f450 service body with no crane. The truck sits at 18000lbs and is 1500lbs over weight. I am looking at a new truck and think a f550 is too small.

I now take care of 5 excervator 4 skid steers 2 wheel loader cv 50 screen. 4 lulls 2 man lifts 3 trailer up to 30 ton 10 truck from 350 to kw. Various attachments and smaller pieces of equipment

I have 6000lbs of tools on the 450 and anther 2000lbs on the selves at the garage. Would a 25999 truck be big enough or would u....

YAMNAR ENGINE COOLANT LEAK ON A TB016

This problem is on a Takeuchi excavator tb016 2003 with a Yamnar TNE 3-68.engine. Maybe some one can help me... After sitting for 4 month, I notice that there is a small leak of coolant, droplets, on the bolts that hold the engine oil pan on the fuel pump side.It is very difficult to see around the coolant pump, but the drain of the pump is dry so it is not by the seal of the pump. Every other place seems dry. Any one could give me some advice ? thank you for yours comments. Ronald.

This is our tms300. Grain was supposed to be 115' tall. Decided it needed to be 135' tall. Had the 110t there to set the dryers so we just set the head with it.

Truss set here. Tms300 again. I ran out of cribbing. That pic is after they dug a 3' hole in the driveway for the back of the crane.

Last one for tonight. The 110t setting a steel structure. Think it was 6700lb at 120'.

Leaking final drive.

One of the final drives is leaking on my 8 ton kubota excavator. I have never had a final drive leak before. I was wondering how hard/big of a job it is to change the seal and what's all involved . I am hoping to fix it myself.

Thanks.

Komatsu Hydraulic Fluid

Hi,

I have a 1994 Komatsu PC400-5 excavator in the western USA, rural area.

Trying to figure out what hydraulic fluid to use to top it off with. Recently had hydrualic fluid changed at dealer.

The manual says 10wt.
The dealer says 10wt, 10w-30 or 15-40 motor oil, not aw46
My service ticket under hydraulic fluid says "70 gal HO46" - but thats NOT 10wt motor oil... ?!!?
This doc seems to indicate it needs to be motor oil, AND HAVE DIESEL CD OR BETTER CERT, not aw46 (see esp page 10 ):...

Hunting Land Dozer

Hi everyone,


I’m new here and new to dozers in general. I’m looking at purchasing a dozer for work to be done on my hunting land, mainly putting in trails, clearing brush/trees, and pond type work. I know relatively little about dozers and need some guidance. I have come across two machines I like so far. One is a Deere 550c and one is a Cat d4c xl and they both seem comparable. Other than the amount of hours, whether or not any major rehaul work has been done, and the condition of the...
