bobcat ct450

I have a Bobcat CT 450 (cabbed model) and the horn was working intermittently but has now stopped. I believe the Bobcat is simply a re-badged Kioti DK 45 or DK 50). Switch was tested and good. 12V power lead to horn is good. Horn itself tested good. Black wire with white stripe doesn't show...

Damaged my damper on the left side door and need to replace it. Dealer wants $76 for a new one which is insane. Does anyone know of a source for an aftermarket damper? If I knew how to size them, I could probably find one but I'm not sure how they measure them. Thanks,

Okay, so I am very confused about these bolts. They are clearly stamped "7T DS" I need to replace a couple that disappeared. I would like to replace them with something a little longer, so that I can also add a Nut behind the hub. However, what are they? Closest I could come to, that seems...

Anyone know where to get glow plugs for CT450 other than dealer? Parts stores possibly not sure if there is a NGK equivalent...My dealer can order some for $40 a pop but will be over a week to get them...

Could use some help finding "retainer" to fit,or a full new assembly. I am wondering if this part is the same on the Kioti. I'm not certain as the Kioti diagrams I could find do not show the breakdown of the filter assembly nor a good pic. I can get a Bobcat part, but it will take a few days...

I just changed the fuel filter with a "Kioti" part, and I get drips. I would have thought there would be a seal/gasket/o-ring, but the original did not have one, or at least I did not remove one and none are laying around. I've looked for an exploded view of the canister, but can't find one...

2012 Bobcat compact tractor* 50 horsepower daedong diesel 4 cyl 4wd hydrostat* Very clean machine looks great for the year, it was taken care of, some rust on the 3pt and around the bottom of the cab. No rot just rust typical for a tractor that was used. 1,150 hours, everything functions but the...

Hello Kioti folks, I am under the understanding that the Bobcat Tractors were made by Daedong/Kioti and that there is an equivalent Kioti version to my Bobcat. I'm hoping you folks can help me suss out a bit more detail, like actual model, known differences, known equivalencies, stuff like...

Can some one direct me to the best place to buy tie rod ends for my CT450 Bobcat? Thanks,

Hi, We have a 2008 Bobcat CT450 tractor. We recently found a 9tl loader for it but are having trouble with mounting the loader on the tractor. The loader serial number is AL4F00359. The loader is a 2012, so it has the straight arms, not the older curved arms. We are having two problems...

Could someone tell me what I should ask for my 2010 Bobcat ct450 tractor with loader? It's got 225 hrs on it and non hydrostatic. 2 sets of remotes and a bend in the front brush guard. One small scratch in the hood. Otherwise in excellent shape. Runs great but I want a cab. Thanks

I have the subject tractor (re-badged Kioti ) with enclosed cab. I need the air filters that fit under the edge of the roof where air is taken in for the circulation. Some mice have decided that was a good place to nest, pro-create, poop, pee, chew on things and whatever else they do. The...

Bobcat CT450 on TractorData John Deere 4320 on TractorData Spec-wise, looks pretty close. The JD 4320 has a 400CX loader and more 3pt lift (2500lbs vs 1870lbs). However, if the Bobcat CT450 is, essentially, the same as the Kioti DK50SE, why does the DK50SE have more 3pt lift (2493lbs vs...

My Ct450 hydro wont go into high gear. It pops out and grinds. It feels like that rubber stop pad was out of the way it would go in. Anything to look for before I take it to the dealer? thanks

I have been doing some searching for the correct wiring harness that would allow me to install an aftermarket radio in the cab of my CT445 which appears to be wired for a radio and 2 speakers. I fond some old 2010 threads on this fantastic site which talked about a $19 adapter but no part...

Hello everyone. I am new to the forum but have had a CT450 for a year. My question is how can I adjust my hydros so I can raise the loader boom and level the bucket at the same time? It stops when I try it. I am an experienced operator, so I do know it takes a bit to find the sweet, spot but...

I have a CT335 that I'm actually quite happy with. However this winter we've had an extraordinary amount of snow and I'm finding the CT335 is having a hard time pushing it and lifting it to the full height of the snow piles. I've come across a CT450 for sale and I'm wondering if the extra hp as...

I am new to the compact tractor market. I have owned a Allis Chalmers wd45 for the last 10 years and am looking to upgrade to a newer tractor. I am looking for opinions on which one of the two would be the best used tractor. I have yet to drive either tractor so any tips on what to look for...

I'm looking at a new CT450 with HST, FEL(quick tach) & cab. No rear remotes. $32,524. Seems a little high for an "orphan"?

I have a ct450 I drained the front axle for 2 days. When i filled it back it took 5 quarts, and the ball was at the top of the sight glass. Drove around for 5min and the ball never moved. What's the deal the book says 8 quarts.

Hopefully will be looking at this slightly used tractor (260 hours) this coming week. Any hints as to what to pay particular attention too? Comes with a cab and fel, as well as front and rear aux hydraulics, and brand new industrial R4 tires. What would you guys and gals consider a fair price...

We started baling our own hay this year since we have a tractor capable of doing the work. The baler that we are borrowing does not have a kicker so we are not pulling a wagon and I dont have a flat wagon either. The bales are going straight onto the ground and get picked up later. The...

I have a 2009 CT450 HST With 103 hours 9TL Front loader and 8TB Backhoe w/18 bucket. I also have a thumb installed and a rear light for working at night. Grill guard . I also have a wood weight box. What is this setup worth?

Do you guys with CT450 go through alot of fuel? My machines seems to drink it like no tomorrow. I have a backhoe setup so i know the machines weights more to move around, But Im going through 4-gallon every 2 hours it seems. That is running almost full throttle and driving around and stopping...

I'm looking to get a 50hp range tractor and have what seems a pretty good price on a CT450 at the local dealer, $23,7000 with loader. He tells me that Bobcat does not sell a top-n-tilt and we might find an aftermarket item. Anyone have a t-n-t they recommend? Also, should the tires be loaded? I...

Any Bobcat compact tractor owners.. please help! I was plowing snow, with my 2008 CT 450, everything working fine. pushed snow against a firm snow bank and stalled the engine. Normally I shift into neutral, step on brake and it restarts. Not this time? All electrical sytems work except...

I just purchased a bobcat Ct450 with 26 hours. When I start it for the first time it blows out alot of black smoke followed by white smoke and alot of shuttering then it clears out and runs fine. Also the coil light goes out then i start it then it comes back on when its shuttering and after a...

CT450 3-point mount hydraulic log splitter work well? I assumed this would work as well as a standalone with an engine, but when I tried to buy one with my new CT450, my dealer said that GPM was too low and that cycle time was poor, and that many buyers complained. Anyone here have experience...

I assumed any tractor's front axle would be locked or lockable, but if IH/Case CUTs are an example, apparently not, they have differentials. Anyone know the deal on CT450? Plain differential, limited slip or solid axle? I want solid, locked or lockable, but will settle on limited slip. If not...

I found a good deal on a 7ft loftness snowblower. Will the 450 run this good?

I've been eyeballin' 50 hp cab tractors lately and noticed a large difference in the 3 pt. lift capacity 'tween the Bobcat CT450 and the Kioti DK50SE. The Bobcat specs out at 1870 lbs 2' rear of pins and the Kioti specs out at 2493 lbs 2' rear of pins. These tractors are suposed to be "twins"...

Is $21,700 a decent price for a 450 sst w/ loader and one remote?

Got a bobcat 450 today with cab. The cab has slot for radio and is supposed to be auto radio ready. It looks like two white push connector plugs unmarked and antenna cable behind slot cover. But no info in manuel on what socket wiring is, I expect one may be for power and the other for the...

Traded the Kioti CK30HST (104 Hours & 1 yr old) in on the Bobcat CT445 with cab in August. Spent yesterday plowing snow. WOW what a brute. Snow was 6" deep and extremely wet and slushy. Found the defog on rear and side windows very weak, could not clear them. Much nicer having electric 4 wheel...

I just ordered a new Bobcat Ct450 a couple of weeks ago with the free loader. What size rotary cutter would this tractor handle comfortably? I'm leaning toward the 5' Rhino 160 due to its specs, but wondering if it would handle the the 6' Rhino 172? It will be used to mow tall grass and some...
