Terraces here are smaller and are farmed over. Same purpose as described by crane operator.Thank you, that's my new thing learned for today

Wonder if it's standard controls or the deere pattern like Overszd runs. I just drive it on, front wheels between the first 2 axles. Should be able to tuck your MB in so you're not over width, throw a few chains on her, and a bag on the exhaust, and bob's your uncle.....
Cost was $55,250, plus 7.% sales tax I wasn't expecting. I think the hour meter was correct. The Kansas Turnpike Authority sold it in 2010 with 1316 hours showing to the seller. The seller had it into deere for transmission work in 2017 with 2869 hours. My lowboy has wheel covers, so should have no problem parking on the tail. I bought the machine from an oil well service company. They did some terrace work and kept up lease roads. I don't have interstate license on my trucks, so being in state and being able to get it myself is a big plus.
One articulation cylinder pin is hacked, and the lower articulation pin turns in the housing rather than the bushing. It could use the ball joints tightened up, but none are slap bad.
Curious what would have caused transmission and articulation pins damage with such low hours.
Some people figure if you don't use articulation, it doesn't need to be greased, but even with the locks in, or out, there is always movement. The center pins on my grader are not serviceable, if that's what he means. I assume they are sealed. We had one fail on one of the loaders. Top was dry and worn, and the bottom was like new.
The C series were a good machine. They were the first Deeres to have the radiator up the back of the machine instead of behind the cab like the A and B series Deeres. I remember the transmission was all new too and they had a few teething problems with them, but once sorted out they worked fine.
