has anyone used the hydraulics on the Bobcat itself to jack up their skid steer for service. I am trying to figure out why I keep de-tracking but frequently jacking up the rear end is wearing me out. what kind of jack did you use? how do you hook it up on the front of the machine?

Thank you in advance!

Mine is a wheeled machine, but I just stick the bucket under something really heavy and lift until the rear wheels come up than stick blocks under the back. Then just go the other way with the bucket to get the front up. An 870 is a big machine, but maybe you can fine something big enough
