    What's the best "older" Bobcat to buy?

    I'd take another Case if I could find a good one for a reasonable price. If they are nice they are overly expensive. If they are reasonably priced they seem to be beat to death. That's why I was leaning towards an older Bobcat.

    What's the best "older" Bobcat to buy?

    I'm looking to add another machine for snow removal and grounds maintenance, but I'm looking to stay under $10k. I have a 1996 Case 1845C that I'm very happy with, and I'm looking for a second machine that is maybe slightly smaller, but definitely reliable. I've heard a lot of people say the 751...

    case 1845c drive motor still leaking. Ideas?

    New seal kit installed. So far so good. The weather here in IL is crap right now so I didn't get a chance to run it hard and really get it hot, but I did drive it around on the asphalt for 10 minutes or so. Thanks everyone for the advice. I'll update once the weather clears up and I can get some...

    case 1845c drive motor still leaking. Ideas?

    I was very thorough in my inspection when I had the motor apart. I decided to order a "Case" original seal kit. The one I used the first time was from LPS. It just came in today and the first thing I noticed is that the Case O-Rings are much thicker. I'm hoping that is the issue. I'm going to...

    case 1845c drive motor still leaking. Ideas?

    There is an o-ring in that joint which was replaced when I installed the rebuild kit. The two pieces of casing don't actually seal to each other. There is a gap between them which is roughy 1/32". This is the same on the left side drive motor as well and it does not leak a drop. This link will...

    case 1845c drive motor still leaking. Ideas?

    The first pic is of the drive motor. The second pic with the pen shows which joint the leak is coming from. It's coming out the bottom side of that casing joint. Thanks

    case 1845c drive motor still leaking. Ideas?

    I've got a 1996 1845C with a leaking right side drive motor. I bought the Case rebuild kit with all of the seals. I pulled the drive motor last weekend and replaced all of the seals on it. The motor was in great shape with no obvious issues. The casing is all in good shape and has no cracks or...

    1845c drive motor

    I have a 1996 Case 1845c with a leaking right side drive motor. I bought a rebuild kit and plan to install it this weekend. Do I need any special tools for the rebuild or to get the motor out of the skid? It appears that there are only four bolts holding it in place and it should slide out? Any...
