    Parting out my baby

    well as luck would have it my pickup was totalled on friday the 13th. Got hit by a 16 year old idiot that stole a car and had just got out of jail. Did alot of undercarriage damage to my girl. I'll probably end up parting it out since the engine is fine and the rest of the truck is still in fine...

    Cat 420 D Vs Case 590 L................

    Yah, in hands of an experienced operator a 2wd hoe can make it happen where most people would only go with a 4wd. Its all about knowing how to use the hoe with the loader.

    Cat 420 D Vs Case 590 L................

    I agree with everyone on the case 590. I operate a super L and my boss has a brand new super M. The super M is the cadillac of backhoes, air seat and the cab is so roomy that it feels like an office. The super M seems to have faster hydraulics than mine does and the in cab bucket removal system...

    47rh tranny issues? Needing advice

    boy,thanks guys, looked at the site at tdr and found out some good stuff.It does make sense to do it right and replace the whole tranny. Why the heck didn't dodge do it right when they started putting cummins engines in their pickups? Typical cheapskate auto makers!

    enging stalling

    my mistake on the quote of two filters, i ment the fuel pump deal that is along the frame on the drivers side. It looks like a filter but it does pump fuel.

    Getting rid of the PSD maybe a chevy

    Yah Dan I'd advise you to test drive dodge and chevy. I've owned one dodge and 2 chevs. They both are drastically different machines and have their strong points. Here are some that stand out to me. Chevy- Smooth ride, good handling, almost car like feel. They also have a frame that sits low to...

    47rh tranny issues? Needing advice

    Ok guys, i'll admit i dont know jack squat about the details of all the technicel aspects of how an automatic works. I'll do my best to explain whats going on w/ mine. Coming home today over donner pass, going about 70 mph up a steep grade the tranny shifted itself out of overdrive, just like i...

    enging stalling

    the company i work for just bought a 93 6.5 . They gave it to me to drive to jobs. I noticed that sometimes when it is first started hot or cold it will start idling rough and then die. Usually if you wait another ten seconds or so it will start fine and stay running. I changed both fuel...

    Would you haul this? Cat D-5 on a SRW Chevy

    yep i'd say thats a big no go. the guy probably had a short distance to and figured he only needed to bind the blade down. Thats just stupid laziness. Judging by the type of pines in the photo i'd say it was somewhere down south. I don't mean to stereotype the folks down there, but i've seen...
