Scott-
NICE "stinger" Have you tried it yet? Was wondering how smooth the valves were. Am I correct in assuming that it's frame mount and does it have it's own pump or does it use the tractor hydraulics? GOOD LUCK -Ed

I'm curious, does it have double acting swing cylinders and 180ï° swing?

The Stinger! I love it!

It is Korean made by Yuchai.

It is a Cat II 3 point and has it's own pump and tank.

Full swing 8'+ flat bottom digging depth.

1400lbs.

It seems to work smooth. I only fired it up for about 30 minutes and barely got all the air out of it. I put 5 gallons of fluid in it and I think it needs about 2-3 more.

I have a Hanmey subframe kit for it I am going to modifiy to work with the subframe from my ZL-60 loader.

How about some pic's of the Pump and some close up's of the mounting?
Did you try it out? Seems to be a good match for your 554.

Scott,

With the new LW-8 B/H you are going to have one mean machine at your disposal. It sure looks to be a well built back hoe - any pics of the hydraulics and controls you can share.

Your instrument panel on the 554 is different to what I have on mine - maybe I have the older version.

I'll take some pics later of the controls. I don't get to spend much time with The Hornet. But the next time I do I will snap some shots.

As for the dash... Yup... It's the latest. It is actually a dash system for use with the cab.

Jinma Just released soft cabs. I'm going to get a bunch with the next shipment.
