So a local auction house is going to offer a Load Trail two-axle trailer with a 14 foot dump bed. It is set up for a ball hitch. I would prefer a 5th wheel, and a pintle would be my second choice, but a good buy is more important. It's a 2014 model. No one can look at it yet, that viewing...

In the 1.5 years I've owned my Bobcat S 185 skidsteer I have put on about 63 hours plowing our driveway, which has 3 houses. Rear visibility is very poor, and I plow in the dark most often. The bottom of the driveway goes along high tide, and the upper end meets a state highway. I plow up...

I have had a US Yanmar 165D for many years. It's first owner, a municipal government, always left it outdoors in this rainforest next to the Pacific Ocean, but it wasn't a rust bucket when I bought it. I have never left it outside (15 years now), and now that it is 40 years old it doesn't...

So bought a specific used Bobcat skid steer about 15 months ago after advice received here at TBN so far as pricing. However, price paid was the one the local dealer told the seller she should ask, and I really owed the seller for the years she and her late husband helped with chores around...

Purchased a 2008 S 185 Bobcat skid steer at beginning of year from widow of fellow who had used the machine since new to plow shared driveway for houses for which my home is one. Paid more than advised on this forum but local dealer gave widow a written appraisal and I could not very well...

About 4 or 5 weeks ago after seeking price information here I purchased a 2008 S 185 with 250 hours. I knew the machine since new since it had only been used in plowing snow in a shared driveway that includes my own residence. The machine had always been stored out of doors until I bought it...

Looking at a 2012 Bobcat S 185 skid steer on wheels. Private sale. I know the machine. Dealer maintained. One owner since new. 250 hours total. Has enclosed cab. Used just about exclusively to plow snow. Always stored outside, and shows it, but otherwise looks good. Always has been used...

I live in a town that cannot be reached by road. Most home items are purchased by mail-order. Looking at the hoses on the FEL and BH on my compact tractor it seems to be a good time to replace all 26 hoses. All are 1/4 or 3/8 NPT. Lengths are up to 108 inches. Does anyone have experience...

Long-time TractorByNet user regarding compact tractors but haven't used a skid steer in decades (since the time when Bobcat meant skid steer). Will be using an S 185 on wheels with chains for snow removal. Is there an operator manual I can download? Second question; machine may be for sale at...

Needed new front tires for my 165d. Current (probably original) tires are Goodyear 6-12, ag tread. I live where mail-order is the only option, and cannot drive out of here - air or water only. Ordered two Carlisle 6-12 ag tread tires. One just arrived. It looks too small in rim diameter...

I have a 1982 Model 165d. It was delivered to the original owner with a frame-mounted backhoe and no roll bar, and that backhoe has never been removed. There was no roll bar when I purchased the tractor from the original owner. I live in a city that cannot be reached by road and therefore...
