    How to mount grab hooks on my loader

    I have a bobcat ct2025 with a FL7 loader. The top of the bucket is too narrow to install bolt on grab hooks on top of the loader. Has anyone mounted them to the back side of their loader bucket? I would have to dump the the bucket to use the hooks. In the alternative, could you weld on grab...

    “Buy the dealer, not the machine” is outdated

    Cars are far more complicated than a tractor. It's not even debatable

    “Buy the dealer, not the machine” is outdated

    Ive also seen some people mention that if you purchase a tractor from a dealer that's 200 miles away with a better price that your closest dealer won't service your tractor. Im sure their agreements with their respective brand strictly forbids that(like a car dealer).

    “Buy the dealer, not the machine” is outdated

    When I was looking for a new tractor I kept seeing posts that you should be less picky on brand and more picky on your dealer. This is such antiquated thinking imho.

    Compact tractor service vs. Commercial Bobcat service

    First time I went into a Bobcat dealer they told me they had no tractors on the lot and “there’s no farms around here so we don’t sell them”. Funny thing is that I was parked in their lot....next to a 10 series tractor. The guy in there seemed genuinely surprised that he had a tractor on his...

    Hydraulic flow rate loss for 3rd function

    My tractor is rated at 11.34gpm at the pump. Im sure there is some loss through friction and whatnot. Does anyone have any idea if there's a rule of thumb as to how many gpm is available at the 3rd function valve? I do have a HST. The attachment I am looking at requires 7gpm and it is loader...

    Loader mounted hydraulic implements

    Dumb question- there are many quick attach style hydraulically powered implements that can be used on a skid steer. That being said, if you have a third function, are there any that could be put on the front of a compact tractor loader and operate as intended? As an example, I saw a loader...

    Bobcat Digger Attachment on Compact Tractor

    I think this would be problematic removing stumps. A stump bucket may be a better choice especially if you are trying to chop through roots

    Optional Cab from Bobcat for CT2025

    You’ll be unhappy with the performance on that tractor if the can had AC. It takes 5hp to run an ac property. You’d have one struggling CT2025. There’s a reason they only go on 35hp and up
