Thanks for all the replies and sorry it’s taken me a while to get back. As far as my diesel gos, it has about 2300 hrs. I’m pretty sure it needs a complete rebuild caused by my neglect. When it started burning oil I kept driving it and adding oil pretty often. Not often enough I guess because it...

I just pulled the blown diesel from my oldest 1430. Before I have it rebuilt I’m looking into some of the big gas twins. I have to figure out what kind of coupler I could use. As I have two other PT’s, this one would only see light duty. ( we have all heard that one before. 🤪). Anyway, wouldn’t...

Has anyone bought one. Would be nice to get a review.

I usually don’t hit it until my heads just healed up from the last one.

You may not have Stitches or broken bones but you’ll have knots on your head from that PT canopy. [emoji4]

Cool power unit but maybe a little much for the 1430. #PT dragster.

Thanks

Abusing that one since 2003. Thanks for the advice.

Thanks for this great post. I’ve been thinking about converting my oldest 1430 to electric for some time, especially now that the engine has given out. Your post gets the juices flowing again. Have to research where to get parts reasonable.

I’ve kind of wondered why power trac isn’t working on one.

Anyone had to repair their light materials bucket. I know it will involve welding but wondering best way to reinforce the area.

I’ve never seen those portable trailer lights. Great idea.

You must have taken that picture back in 2001. Way to clean. [emoji4]

Your 1430 is behaving normally. The one I bought 2012 has behaved that way in the cold since I got it. The older one I had was more responsive. It had a different pump with bigger orifices so cold oil could flow through easier. Sometimes I put a portable jump box on the battery and use a squirt...

Depends on what you’ll be using it for. The 2430 is a better loader on level ground but not as versatile( even though all the attachments fit)as the 1430. The 1430 will do all the stuff your 425 does only it’s bigger.
