    Genie z45/25 boom drop

    Hey guys, I have a 1999 Genie z45/25 boom lift that I can not seem to find the problem with. Everything works as it should with the exception of the primary boom lift, it will raise fine, but as soon as you release the raise function, it drops back to the ground immediately. I have replaced...

    Bobcat 96"grader

    I was afraid of that, oh well. Thanks for the quick response, really appreciate it.

    Bobcat 96"grader

    I was just curious if anyone ever figured out if this would work or not. The 2 receivers look almost identical, but the Spectra LR20 at less than half the cost of the BLR2, makes the replacement of a broken receiver a lot more attractive.

    Deere 650j or 700j

    Thanks guys, this was just the kind of information I was looking for. I was worried that for the size difference, it may not be worth it but it sounds like it is a great all around dozer. I will be using it in the mountains with quite a bit of rocky ground at times and steep slopes as well. I...

    Deere 650j or 700j

    I'm looking to get my first dozer and not sure which way to go here. I will be using it to level and widen roads, level fields, and maybe build a pond. I looked at a 650 a couple years ago and should have pulled the trigger but didn't, so here we go again. I have never been around a 700 but...

    which spectra laser?

    Randy, thanks so much for your help. What you said makes a lot of sense, the gl422 is probably way more than I need for a while anyway until I can learn what all application it will have for me. I would hate to spend more than I need to to have a bunch of features I don't understand and will...

    which spectra laser?

    I have been thinking of getting a laser for house pads, footings, driveways and the like. I was thinking about the GL422, as I just as well get the dual grade while I am at it, but now am curious about the new UL633 or GL622 as well. I would like the cr600 receiver to use on my excavator as...

    choosing the right dozer

    Thanks guys, this is just the kind of information I was looking for. It's nice to hear from guys that have actually ran both brands and not bash one or the other when they don't even have any experience with it, that's why I came to you guys. I think I'll continue leaning toward the Deere...

    choosing the right dozer

    Hey guys, I'm new here and wanted to get a few of your opinions. I need a dozer to regrade and widen a few ski slopes and put to work other times building small house pads and cutting driveways. The problem is, I have never run one before and usually hire it done, but have enough work the next...
