The 4wd unit is the correct one because it has the splined center section to accommodate the cv axle shaft. If your getting a unit listed for the GM or Isuzu vehicle it doesn't matter if you get left or right because when you remove the ABS harness there is no longer a difference between left...

This is my first year with this blower and in Fairbanks I don't have much in the way of drifts and other packed piled snow. I also have an older SB200 on a 863 in Cantwell, Ak. That blower has the equivalent of a 100cc motor and does not have an aggressive auger like the 32x80. The cantwell...

I am using a 32x80 with a 130cc motor on a 2014 5610. No complaints. Almost all of what I blow is gravel based so it is necessary to establish a few inches of hardpack over the gravel and then avoid gouging thru that hardpack over the course of the winter. The factory shoes don't provide enough...

Laurencen, I have never installed a Webasto but have installed a couple Espars on Dodge Cummins trucks. I believe Webasto and Espar are very similar. If I were considering of putting one on my 5610 I would look at installing it on the passenger side floor board and plumb the heating lines in via...

I have added about 20 hrs to the machine since changing the fuel filter and have not had a recurrence of the problem. So the biggest take away for me is that a fuel starvation problem can cause an engine to quit running and not record any diagnostic error codes.

I was blowing snow and engine died. At the time I was pushing moderately hard into a packed snowbank and slowly lifting blower up. The engine sounded like it bogged due to being overloaded. It is keyless ignition, it would crank but not fire. Cycled ignition and it started right up. It then did...

The cap on my machine is occasionally leaking a small amount of coolant that then gets blown onto the left side of the engine compartment by the cooling fan. I was wondering if others have encountered this?

Has anyone come up with a bucket level indicator system for the Toolcat?

Hi, I have purchased a used 5610 and plan to install a hydraulic top link. The machine is still in the lower 48 and I am in Alaska so I can't measure what the nominal top link length is. I was wondering if anyone has recently installed a top link and would be willing to share the cylinder specs...

I am wanting to make an extension harness that connects into an existing unused connector and was wondering if somebody here knew the brand and connector series info on the connectors Bobcat used in the 2001 time frame. Thanks Ian

Hi, I recently purchased a 2001 863. It smokes some at hi-idle and more at rated RPM when under load. Air filters are new. I am wondering if the turbo's boost output is low but I can't find a boost pressure specification for this engine and was wondering if someone on the forum knows what a...
