Ive only seen pictures so far. Is 8k hours on a Hyundai 130c alot for a 1996? Machine looks to be in good shape, not sure about the undercarriage until I actually see it.

no comments?

Got some pictures. Looks like the sprockets are just about completely pointed. Idler wheel in the back is adjusted out about 1.5 inches (hard to tell from pictures). The shoes look brand new. Could the sprockets just be replaced, is that a difficult job? The price is well under my budget with a hydraulic thumb!

too late, it should be here tomorrow. The shoes are in great shape. It needs sprockets and the spacers between the chains. Dont think it needs the actual chains. Got it for a good price and for what Ive been looking at it should work out pretty good.

That was what I was looking for, thanks, we would be doing some lite clearing and some larger basements periodically, not an everyday machine for us we specialize in footings and water/sewer/septic lines. We come across a large basement and bigger residential job a few times a year, also having a bigger machine would open the door in our area for some bigger work w/o being a "big" company with all the big expenses and overhead.


Good luck with the new machine KTM

So ill look into the cost for sprockets and chains. Still think Ill be ahead of all the previous stuff I looked at. BTW, itll be here tomorrow because of hurricane Earl. THey are dopping it off early to beat the storm. The problem is, once its dropped off, I have to head to work. Gonna be a loooonnggg day!
