    Cat 935C 1989: Quick Attach Backhoe--Worn Hose

    In addition to my previous thread regarding the driveshaft/u-joint issue, I noticed that I had a lot of wear on one of the hoses on the backhoe. This was only from a few hours of using the front bucket to clear brush. The uneven ground caused the backhoe to bottom-out a lot, and the hose in...

    Cat 935C 1989: Three Issues: Engine Noise, No Forward or Reverse, Hyd Fluid Loss

    Thanks spitzair. I'll be consulting tomorrow with my neighbour next to the acreage. He has a gravel pit and lots of h/d equipment, so he can give me some idea of how big a job this will be. No doubt he could do this repair for me as he has a shop for his own repairs, but I've imposed on him...

    Cat 935C 1989: Three Issues: Engine Noise, No Forward or Reverse, Hyd Fluid Loss

    I should mention that the clanking is there even when the transmission is in neutral. It seems to be coming from up front at the engine bay. But I'll start with checking the drive shaft as you suggest. Add'l details: Machine has 4200 hrs, with redone undercarriage. Thanks for your input.

    Cat 935C 1989: Three Issues: Engine Noise, No Forward or Reverse, Hyd Fluid Loss

    Hi all: I'm new to heavy equipment, and bought the 935C two years ago to clear brush/dig basement/trenches on my small acreage. Finally started to use it this spring for about four hours, and issues have cropped up. Hope someone can provide advice: Engine: Starts and runs well at idle or...
