    Bobcat travel motor not working.

    And i forgot to mention that during these episodes of slowdown when i then attempt to travel in fast mode eveything seems fine. Not sure if it is because the other track is doing most of the work and i can only move in fast mode if traveling straight and using both motors in same direction.

    Bobcat travel motor not working.

    Looking closer at the diagram...are there reliefs right inside the travel motors itself? I have never opened one up before and thought it was just a valve block attached to motor.

    Bobcat travel motor not working.

    I will try to take some pics. And thanks Uffex for the diagram. I was thinking of chasing the problem around by switching lines and valves. The problem might reveal itself. Wasnt sure if there is only one relief per motor. Which would eliminate the relief because it always travels in reverse...

    Bobcat travel motor not working.

    Hello everyone. Been a while! The 328 vintage bobcat year 2000ish is giving me trouble with the right side travel motor. When cold seems to be working fine. As it gets hot (few hrs of work) the left slows right down. At brief moments its like it stops completely. It always travels in reverse...

    Bobcat 328 excavator pins and bushings/ sizes.

    Hello. I am in need of king pins and bushings. I feel they are too expensive from local bobcat dealer @ $150ea as i need 6 of them to redo the front swing knuckle plus 2 pins. Does anyone know the size of the bushings used on a year 2000 328 excavator? Dont want to dismantle machine until i...

    bobcat 328 mini pilot controls pressure.

    Hello gentleman! How much pressure is in the 1/4" line that comes from the pattern selector? I need to replace the line from the selector to the valve body. Its a 1/4" line and rotted out. Where it enters the body the fittings are seized. So i was hoping that I could get someone to my house...

    Bobcat 328 excavator case drain location

    Thank you for that! Im just little nervous with it cuz the cost of seals was little pricey in my book. Trying to do this right without further headaches.

    Bobcat 328 excavator case drain location

    Swivel is apart on the bench. Different from others ive seen. Seals placed over rotor instead of into barrel. Bobcat dealer mentioned they preheat seals in oil prior to install. Does anyone know how this is done properly?? Any experience with it?

    Bobcat 328 excavator case drain location

    I see a 90°elbow at bottom of tank line..is that the case drain? Well little update and info for anyone attempting this. I had to remove at least one of the bottom fittings ( large one to travel motor) so i could get lip of barrel past the mount and then spin the unit out. Without removing any...

    Bobcat 328 excavator case drain location

    I forgot to mention that after careful inspection of rods that control the valves i found that the rod had excessive play which surely didnt help but think this leak is the real cause of my intermittent travel issue.

    Bobcat 328 excavator case drain location

    Update: machine is home...nothing jumped out so after removing plates and floor and after pressure washing i finally had a clean area to inspect cuz oil was everywhere. Once cleaned and ran unit for 1 minute i could see oil weeping ( more like pouring) out of swivel joint at the top seal...

    Bobcat 328 excavator case drain location

    thanks again. I have a hydraulic filter coming off the tank only. I dont see any others tied to the hydro system. I did get a chance to visit my property today (where unit is located) and noticed a leak coming from under the machine. When i pulled the floor plate off to investigate i noticed...

    Bobcat 328 excavator case drain location

    Thanks Uffex. Am i correct in saying the case drain is simply a line that goes back to swivel joint? With no filter? I keep reading that hydro motors have a filter and that is should be checked. I can find it though when i searched the schematics on "bobcatpartsonline". I will have to pull...

    Bobcat 328 excavator case drain location

    Hello to all! I own a 2000 bobcat 328 excavator. Recent travel motor issues had me searching for answers and sites are saying to check the case drains for travel motors. Does the 328 have one? If so where can i find it? Im trying to isolate what might be causing the slow to no forward movement...

    New "to me" bobcat 328

    Well sadly i ordered the part i need. Very expensive and really a sad testament to the poor service after the sale for bobcat . When things are that expensive to keep running its a surprise that people would buy one cuz things break from time to time. And whether for personal or business use the...
