    Case 90XT Parts

    Thanks for the reply. I did see that one on ebay, but I mine is the newer style (ASN JAF0245225) that came with these machines. I don't know if that one can be modified, Id hate to take the chance for a 300 dollar muffler. I would rather buy the correct one the first time. Here is the Part...

    2015 Bobcat T450 starting issue after replacing fuel filter

    Hey guys, im having an issue with starting my t450 after replacing the fuel filter.

    299D2 Hydraulic Drive Motor Schematic

    Hey guys, I had a hydraulic drive motor break on me and had Caterpillar install a new replacement under warranty. 7 months later the hydraulic motor breaks again and I replaced with a used unit because Cat didnt want to replace because my machine was out of warranty by this time. My...

    Which CTL for pool excavation.

    I just wanted to update and say the cat 299D2 now has over 1000 hours of constant pool digging (I purchased new), its been the best investment by far, so glad I went with Cat vs bobcat. No downtown whatsoever with this machine, but our bobcat t450 has been in the shop 5 times already. Big...

    John Deere 332E Data logging?

    I currently have a John Deere 332E that after 3 hours of contentious digging (digging a swimming pool) the machine starts lacking power. It gets so bad to the point where I can't do 180 degree turns inside the pool. The machine is strong for the first 2 hours. I am wanting to know if John Deere...

    Which CTL for pool excavation.

    I have never seen the cutting edge design before, and my fathers been in the business since 1993. We have always trimmed the walls by hand with 6" blades with handles, similar to a shovel and driving them downward, standing at the top edge of the pool. I'm always looking for tools to make the...

    Which CTL for pool excavation.

    Cool thanks for that info. It makes sense. I'm not sure if it has the reversing fan. I don't think it does. It says I have the option: COOLING, FAN, DEMAND.

    Which CTL for pool excavation.

    Oh wow, Im glad I went with cat then. I was almost going to sign for the T770 until the brought the price of the 299d2 down. The T770 I was getting was bare bones with self leveling kit and a keypad display. Nothing else.

    Which CTL for pool excavation.

    I believe its around an extra 6-7k for a closed cab with AC and heat. They get up into the mid $80,000s

    Which CTL for pool excavation.

    I was actually quoted 71k for the bobcat 770. I purchased the 299D2 for 73k and it had more bells and whistles.

    Which CTL for pool excavation.

    Sorry for the late response guys, here is a picture of the 299D2 at my yard. I has 36 hours on it, im guessing they used it as a demo unit, but thats fine I'm not complaining. I was too anxious to try it out and went mudding with it. Its been raining a lot recently, but I just had to try it...
