    1845C Hydraulic Pump:

    Not a very large pump at all as originally installed and plenty of room for expansion. Located a spec sheet on the machine and mine is slow in comparison to standards. Thanks,

    Going to get the original type axle back under my air compressor:

    Outer bearings and correct races showed up this afternoon. Now awaiting seals and will be onto the task.

    Scrap axles

    I'd like to have a rear unimount hub and single piece drive axle for it. No need for anything else.

    Going to get the original type axle back under my air compressor:

    Trail King Brake Issue

    I've seen cams with the ends broken off in the past and it's been from the brakes being worn so thin they just about cammed over. We had a set of very rough tracks near where I worked and it was brutal on spring ride suspension trailers. Brakes worn thin, extreme stroke of the chambers, drums...

    Opion on a 1995 GMC 6500 Dump Truck.

    Back in the short stint I had working on city plow trucks the 3208 wasn't very reliable until they went to turbocharging. A byproduct was an uprating in power with turbocharging, but the heads would not crack as often, and valves lasted much better before needing a regrind. The old 1160 engine...

    1845C Hydraulic Pump:

    I agree and the drive, or hydrostatic system, (Sundstrand/Danfoss) works very well. There is an easy access SAE B, or C pilot flange gear pump at the rear w/ 7/8-13 spline input shaft for the loader hydraulics. To change a pump is basically a slip fit. I don't know the actual displacement of the...

    Considerate:

    I did receive a response from the seller. They issued a refund for the full amount? I don't know where this was lost in translation but it is what it is. I'll have to ask my daughter to keep an eye out for the refund however she paid for it. I suppose at this writing they have donated me a tank...

    1845C Hydraulic Pump:

    I am not certain with this at all. If I had a weak system attributed to a defective pump, it would be easily justified. However that is not the case here. It's kind of like sitting at a computer when the anti virus software is scanning or a website is loading, it's working, but annoying and...

    Front ends are also not too stable and subject to sliding out when tires are packed solid.

    2004 International 7300

    Surely could use something more open and aggressive on the steer in those conditions.

    bought a 920 cat, engine seized 20 min later.

    Well, since the rooster approves, It's all good.

    2004 International 7300

    Though not on a powered steering axle I have 10 tires like this tread pattern on my Mack. They wear, grip, and clean well and really don't round over on the steer axle. Mine are 16ply and General branded. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ironman-I-301-11R22-5-H-16PLY/551371419?from=/search As TS...

    Going to get the original type axle back under my air compressor:

    Inner wheel bearings delayed by a day; you guessed it, FedEx. Outer replacement bearings are still in route, but they are shipped postal so planning on having problems.....

    Sweeper:

    Been looking around online this morning and going to check with the implement dealer to ascertain whether I should purchase a broom, or rent. I can visualize owning one quite easily as it could find use in several arena(s) for me.

    Trail King Brake Issue

    That is a driver not at all in touch with his equipment. That "S" cam rode in the "cam over" position a long time after the brakes burned down off the wheel end. Probably going to need a drum also and possibly bearings as things probably got very hot.

    1845C Hydraulic Pump:

    May be nature of the beast but I have good pressure and plenty of hydraulic power with my skid steer. I've always thought the hydraulics were slow in the tractor however. It may just be me but newer skid steers have a cyclical rate much faster than mine. I'm wondering if it feasible to replace...

    Considerate:

    A good portion of the FedEx, and Amazon delivery drivers are operating out of a dilapidated vehicle of some sort. Usually a van that is either leased, or rented. Several have no markings on them, or a magnetic sign to easily move from vehicle to vehicle. Driver's are always under the gun and...

    Full Synthetic or Blend - only +.68c more / gal

    I don't see, or work on near the number of vehicles as in the past when that rumor was prevalent, but I've not seen a direct correlation, or corroboration between the argument of whether synthetic engine oil causes leaks in older engines. I remain neutral on the subject as between the five oil...
