    Chevy C65

    according to the title it's a Chevy. I think the grill was replaced somewhere along the way. It does have dual exhaust and flowmasters, not a very stealth truck.

    2 spd rear end

    My truck is 5speed with 2 sped axle. there is a shift pattern sticker that says to always be in high when changing transmission gears. after switching gears then change to low range. would it damage the truck to go through the gears in low then upshift to high when it gets moving?

    box blade for a skidsteer

    I have a 3 point box blade I use n the front of my backhoe thru a quick attach to 3 point adapter. When using it I primarily have to run in reverse which isn't much of a problem. It works great, Particularly on grading out gravel. you can control from the cab the angle as you move which makes...

    Earthforce/Ingersoll Rand/ Bobcat compact tractor backhoes?

    I have a Bobcat B300. It would be great to see them being built again. The closest I have seen to these units is a JCB. The JCB has 4 wheel steer and even looks similar. The loader arms are a bit different on the JCB. Good Luck

    dump truck search

    I have been shopping and reading up on dump trucks for a while and now it's time to narrow the focus. I heard read a lot about the dt466 being a solid engine as well as not crazy expensive to repair. At the same time I've how at around 200-225HP they aren't a real powerhouse either. Living in...

    Kubota M59 opinions

    Th M59 on paper seems like a great niche machine. I have been interested in one for a few years as one would fit my business very well. I already run a compact tlb and having the ability to run 3 point attachments would be great. That being said i have also over loaded and overworked mine more...
