    Bobcat 334 D Erratic movements of the aux thumb

    I am recently having an issue when I press the Aux button on the panel to operate the thumb toggle. As soon as I press the button on the panel the engine sounds strained and when I go to move the thumb it jumps back and forth, moving erratically. Anyone have this issue before? 2500 hr machine...

    bucyrus erie 10-b

    I know this post is a little old but, I got parts for my 15b at A1 Crawler and crane in Orrville, OH. Great guys and good prices. I know they scrapped out a couple when the price was high a few years back but I'm thinking they kept shafts like that on the shelf., Ed

    Looking for a big pull type pan

    Like this? Is this too rusty for ya? I'm pretty sure these guys have a huge Letourno pan at this place too, it's in VA. They were goin through scrapping stuff out last year when the price was real high, I got a 15 B BE off them, but I know he wanted to keep the big Letourno (not pictured). Ed
