    I have a 1997 Bobcat 863 which cracked the hydraulic gear pump. I found that and have a new pump on order, arriving in a couple days. Now I'm trying to figure out what could have caused this issue in the first place. The crack goes directly through one of the bolt holes holding the pump onto...

    Bobcat S650 motor not on carrier

    I bought a 2017 S650 with 400hrs on it. Put 100 hours on it and lost all the hydraulic oil into the chain case. After some reading and being unable to see which side was leaking I replaced left and right carrier seals (2 seals each side instead of one). It sucked and I was all ready to hang the...

    Bobcat 331 wiring issues

    Working on my neighbors 2003 bobcat 331 mini excavator. It will turn over with the switch, but wont start. If you run your own wire to the fuel solenoid it will start, but the controls wont work.

    Bobcat 435 slow and weak travel

    Hello again. My 2007 bobcat 435 has seemed like it has weak travel since I have owned it. It travels pretty straight, but struggles to turn in high or low. You can feel it shift from low to high, so I dont think its stuck in high. With the tracks in the air it free spins quickly, and it travels...
