Gentlemen, I have joined your ranks. A TC 40 A...

Bruce,

Wow! I really need to get out there and check those bolts.

The clunk/pop sound came when I had the loader digging. It probably was the loader shifting, but to someone who's never had a loader, it sure sounded like it was coming from the front end.

Thanks for the reply and I'll let you all know what/if I find anything. MP

Bruce has the best of both worlds, wide Ags on the rear of his TC35, and R4s up front. I really like those wide 17.5 Ags on the back of his TC35. Kinda wish my TC48DA was bought that way. What grip, and floation at the same time. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I agree! I found a couple of bolts loose on my loader subframe. Once tightened, everything has held nicely. Also, when you are down there checking every bolt head, you are learning a "ton" about how your tractor is made and where things are located. From the bottom, looking up, it's a real adventure. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Guys, I was able to use the tractor some more this weekend. I now have 10 hours on it. Only heard the clunk once , and it was on the right side this time, so I'm sure it is the loader. I like my machine so far.
