    Gehl 5635 lol leak at Axel.

    So it may not be as bad as it looks hopefully. I'd be surprised if the bearing is bad as I can see that the hubs have been off before as theres fresh orange silicone around all 4 of them. The dealership that sold me this machine went over it pretty well before selling it. I've been hearing a...

    Gehl 5635 lol leak at Axel.

    Hey everyone, So I've had my gehl 5635 for a year and a half or so and it's been a great machine around the yard here. I've been using it to clear the driveway in winter and to do some landscaping and that kind of thing. Up to this point it's been very reliable, starts easy in the winter and...

    Reverse camera or rear view mirror

    I used to laugh at back up.cameras when they first came out but I'll have to admit I love them now. I put a wired back up cam in my truck and it's amazing how easy it is the back up to my trailer in pitch black night and put the ball under the receiver every time. Also backing up in trails...

    Where to find a mpoor for a deere 333d?

    Hey guys, Figured I'd ask here. The guy I push snow for is looking for a motor for a 333d deere as the one he has popped a rod and 2 pis tons by the sounds of it. Any leads on who to call would be great. Thanks

    Wacker Neuson Skid Steer

    I've seen the WN CTLs on job sites quite a bit over the last year in my neck of the woods. I've looked them over and I'll say they look like we'll built machines with very roomy cabs. One of the largest residential grading outfits out my way has taken on the WN line and must like them as...

    Another update for those interested. I've put about 60 or 70 hours on the 5635 so far. I'm very very happy with it still. It starts and runs like a champ. I've had the cab up several times and have spent some time cleaning and tidying up the engine bay. I pulled the floor and foot rests and...

    Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it. I'll keep you posted on what I find in there once I open it up. I'm guessing I'll find the exact problem you described.

    My noise sounds like its coming from the right side chain case. It's a "rattle rattle rattle" kind of sound it's not there all the time either. It comes and goes. The dealer said they went through this machine and I can see rtv sealant on the tops of both chain case covers. They apear to be well...

    My heater hoses aren't kinked and there's no valve on either if them. My oil gauge works great and the engine runs at I think 180f or so. I'll have to check extra time I run it. The heater isn't factory I don't think. It's a clean factor install but it doesn't match the diagrams in the parts...

    Doosan Engine & Bobcat

    So are the new bobcats generally reliable in the cold? I ask cause a guy I push snow with normally runs new Hollands. He traded in 1 of them on a new s650 (I may have the model wrong, it's a long wheelbase big machine). The first couple of times we went out it wasn't too cold maybe -10 Celsius...

    Well we got a storm yesterday and my driveway drifted in pretty good. The kind of drifts that would of made me grit my teeth trying to move them with my tractor. Had to go jump in a loader last night and clear several big parking lots so I didn't have time to clear y driveway. Normally this...

    Just spent an hour puttering with the 5635 and 2 hours moving snow. I blew out the heater and that seemed to help it heat a little better. I'll clean it out better in spring. I put new weather stripping around the door which really helped with keeping the windows clean and the drafts away...

    Well my new toy I mean tool got dropped off this morning. I put an hour on it before work and I will say that I am impressed. The engine runs like a Swiss watch, hydraulics are smoth and very quiet. And yep those t bars are super easy to get used to. Took me about 20 mins to get decent...

    Right on thanks for the info. I will try the t bars for a while and see what they do. I prefer the bars stay light as I'm a sheet metal worker so of course I have tennis elbow and carpal tunnel in both hands! I find I adapt pretty quickly to most controls. We have a Volvo L90E at the company I...

    Well my wife and I were talking about buckets. I think we're going to buy both. You guys are right, I need a tooth bucket. We have 14 acres and I'm still clearing some of it so yeah I need a toothed bucket. One question for those of you who know gehls. Is there a way to make the t bars more...

    Hi, The toothed bucket would be nice I agree BUT living in this desolate land called the Canadian prairies a snow bucket is just what the doctor ordered from november to april .We got something like 110cm of snow during a 2 week period in December which means 90% of my hours are spent on snow...

    Hey jeepwalker. The drive chains were just serviced along with engine and hydraulic oils. I'm not sure how to check drive motor lube unless your talking about the hydro oil? Once again thanks for all your help.

    Well thanks to everyone for their help on this subject. I just did the deal for the gehl. It was outside in -20 Celsius weather and it fired up from stone cold without glow plugs!! It actually started nicer then my new tractor. Dealer is great and they showed me anything that may be an issue...

    Opinions on Gehl 5635sx

    I agree, and I told the salesman that I would like it outside and cold when I get there. Now it has been -30 Celsius for the last week though so often a machine won't start under those conditions. Plugged in it should start though so its not like I'm asking for too much. :)
