The guys over there are great. Very excited to get this ! I will post pics of everything and I am sure I will run into problems installing it. Should have it here within 3 weeks stay posted!!
make sure you get pictures, of it on pallet all the way through the install as well as it working.
You might have one of the only or few Coldwater loaders on the east coast!
If you dont mind me asking what did it cost. I mean i guess i could call and get a price quote but i also am interested in the shipping price in the end as well.
Did they already have a pattern for the mounting brackets/frame for the 186D or did they wing-it and make one from scratch. A while back, I had called them on a bigger Yanmar, but they did not have the mounting bracket plans. I remember they were very nice to talk with over the phone. Best wishes, and you saved $$$$
Yes, you were fortunate that they had the same model to look at. I remember they told me that did not have my particular model to "look at", so they could not fabricate for me. It appears that they "thinks as they goes"; which is fine as long as they have "your" type of tractor to "think with". You will be fine with your new loader!
