I found a Bobcat 853 that is being parted out. I was wondering if some of the parts from that machine (like the cab, exhaust, rear lights) would fit my Bobcat 753?
If the ROPS (cab) look the same, then they are the same. Later 753 was also built in G-series cab while 853 was same as F-series. Other than ROPS that is about all these 2 models share. Different engines, exhaust, pumps, drive motors, chain case, axle, loader arm, cylinders - none of this would interchange with the 753.
F- series has a lip on the roof that hangs over the front rectangular head lights, and the seat bar is hinged at the front of the cab. G-series has triangle shaped headlights and the seat bar is hinged at the back of the cab, behind the seat. One cab design will NOT interchange with the other.
