    Lx885 New Holland engine

    Hello all- I'm looking for an engine for an LX 885 skid steer. It looks like the old 201 3 cylinder engine they used in Ford tractors for years but this one is turbocharged. Anyone know of a used runner anywhere or maybe a good core. This one has a rod knocking. Thanks!

We have no owner's manual and can't figure out what it should be. Looking online it looks like it may be a Dextron3 ATF or equivalent but...

    I have a guy with a 6035 Traverse telehandler and he's broken all four of the steering knuckles off right behind where the tapered tie rod end goes into it. It's basically a "yard dog" and sees very limited use. It is on concrete though. The stops are on all the wheels as well. I could...

    Komatsu WB140-2N transmission problem

    I'm having an issue with a weak pulling transmission. I checked torque converter pressure and it was 40 PSI idling and 130 PSI at full throttle. The high side is in spec but my manual says low pressure should be around 8 or 10 PSI, so it's high. The forward and reverse clutches read about 10 or...
