    Bobcat 753 hydraulic oil turned milky ........

    Thanks Roadworthy. My owner’s manual calls for 10W30 in the hydraulics but I’ve learned that Bobcat discontinued this practice in 2006. Cracked open the hyd filter and drained a little out. Starting to think it is water mixed in.

    Anyone out there pricing a C227 track loader? Thinking about selling my current Bobcat to buy a bigger unit and this model caught my eye? Currently has 0% for 60 through the end of August.

    Replacing dipper arm bushings - Kubota mini excavator

    Good evening all, Picked up a Kubota KX161 for the farm, had it a little over a year now. Bigger than I thought I wanted but I’m so glad I went for it, great size machine for chores. Had the intentions of going through the lower end of the dipper arm as a winter project. Had some...
