I have an old hydrant that has started leaking around the nut after someone tried to open the valve while it was frozen. Already tried tightening the nut a couple times but that did not work as it looks like that has been done several times in the past. Hardware store had two types of packing...
We have Raccoons and possums running around our yard at night but my SIL and her husband have something much larger prowling around. I did not know Wisconsin has such a large bear population.
The pictures I see of bobcat backhoes mounted on bobcats have a chain on the base of the frame. The 709 I bought has this chain and a slotted bracket to hook it in. Am I right in assuming this chain is to be wrapped around the QA plate of the bobcat and the bottom of the frame of the backhoe...

I need to know what pipe thread size of flat face couplers to get to replace the original pioneer style ends on my 1993 7753 Bobcat?
I have been using old style to flat face adapters on the auxiliary hydraulic couplers of my Bobcat. That makes them stick out past the lift arm. They are now in...
Been wanting a grapple for years and now I'm done with grapple envy.:cool2: I now have a grapple for my skid steer! It's a 72" NAI (North America Implements) heavy duty root grapple with 1/2" flat tines and reinforced outer points.
Would like to know what Jump Starter / Power Packs other TBN'ers have and the luck they have had with them.
