Points: 0 | I drove a ton of these machines. i use to work on alot of them
at the shop. my opinion is. the best all round skidsteer
for work and price. is a 1998 to 2000 bobcat 863.
70hp turbo it is a nice machine. and can be bought resonable.
and its almost bullet proof.
yes there are newer machines with full cab heat and ac.
and rubber trac's but there 50 to 60 grand. but the 863 is a digging
beast. and we saw less problems from this than any other skidsteer

Points: 0 | I have a question about a 520 Bobcat that I am getting back into shape.
The unit bucks quite a bit. I rebuilt the foot linkage for the lift arms and it is sweet now.
Did some repairs on the steering linkage and it appears that I made the bucking worse!
I am brand new to this and would appreciate some pointers. It will buck hard enough on a hard surface to lift the wheels. | | | |

I used to own an ant farm but had to give it up. I couldn't find tractors small enough to fit it.
