    Accomadating a neighbor

    I get it, tough situation and I understand where you are coming from. Personally I would mention it to him that this is a public road and there are laws about his dogs not being contained or on a leash. You do not want to see his dogs or any dog hurt or killed by a vehicle and would appreciate...

    Accomadating a neighbor

    That is a tough one to navigate. I am not the best person to be giving advise on this topic. Don't play well with stupid. From the information you provided this cheeky turd purchased a plot of land next to a dirt track, that is his fault and his burden to deal with not yours. By stating the...

    Not sure if the company ever gets a visit from EPA or OSHA though many places Ive worked and worked in including refineries would have an absolute meltdown over that kind of mess. Not to mention if it were just left there like roadkill. EPA nightmare, OSHA nightmare, Company safety nerd...

    This will be an interesting thread moving forward......

    No keyboard quarterback here, just merely stated what I would have done with a company that can't get it together let alone seemingly work against you. I never referred to money as income or debts owed by another person. No need for panties to get wadded up over internet conversation.

    Hog hunting, looking for places to hunt

    Down here the Game wardens will make fun of you if you dont kill a few pigs while out on management areas. Been asked several times when I had my kids with me if we wanted to follow them so they could show us a good spot where the hogs are always laying around or passing through. Hunting at...

    Pics of mini exs in dump trailers please.

    My PC35 MR-2 just fits tight into my 14 foot dump trailer made by Texas Pride. I have about an inch between the push blade and the rear doors and have to pivot the boom sideways to place the bucket in the corner on a block to keep the stick cylinder from hitting the 3 foot side rail or front...

    pc35mr-2 sticky travel lever

    If its a canopy machine just unbolt the upper and flip it forward to get access to the travel linkage and valves. You can inspect it all and make sure nothing is severely dirty, sticking, worn out or in need of adjustment. A hose improperly ran after replacement or removal on another repair...

    Hydraulic in diesel tank

    Big difference in the Liebherr injectors and komatsu or any other brand for that matter. Much different though Yes I'd agree this issue was happening much longer than a tank of diesel and likely was an issue for quite some time.

    How would you remove these bushings? Komatsu pc35mr

    I was able to replace mine, first removing by stick welding a few passes and tapped them out fairly easy. Cleaned up the bore good and found my 30T center hole ram had blown seals. So I rented one the next day. Used One inch threaded rod, 3/8'' plate and used the porta power to press them into...

    replace just one final drive or both?

    Honestly without knowing and seeing the machine / condition of the machine its hard to give an answer here. On a well maintained machine with lower hours replacing one that failed and not the other would not be an issue. Flip side to this if your machine is older, higher hours and or has not had...

    Excavator track tensioner cylinder question.

    had this happen on a komatsu 220 some years back from the crew ramming the tracks into concrete piles to help loosen them up. Deformed the rod and piston to the point where the entire cylinder had to be replaced. This can be caused from going up and down from barges to the steep banks without...

    Euclid

    No personal experience. My grandfather was a Euclid mechanic back in the day installing Interstate 10 in the south. Yes they were two dozers bolted together working in sync. As a young kid all the way into my adult years working on equipment myself I always found it interesting to hear him speak...

    Komatsu pc50uu-1 only swings one direction

    Ok linkage not pilot, still could cause issue for sure. Being out far enough to have no response, I would say yes its possible as the linkage is what would push or pull on a spool residing in the control valve.
