boom

I have a old Case 680 K extend-hoe backhoe. My garage has a 12 foot high door but hangs 6 inches lower when open. I have not had a big deal, lowering the boom and locking back in place. However my luck ran out and I damaged several roof trusses when throwing back into locked boom position. I...

I have an ATV type 25 gal sprayer with a 2.4 GPM pump. I want a boom to go with it but the kits you can buy are really expensive for what they are. Have any of you built your own? I apparently don't know the correct terminology nothing search comes up with the nozzles. I assume you could get...

3 point lift arms were not going all the way up, PO had the stop a little before highest point. I readjusted the stop so it would lift all the way up. Several days later I was doing some dirt hauling with the bucket and noticed the boom was very slow going up and down, had to put it in float for...

Has anyone installed flow restrictors on this model backhoe to slow the boom down? I’m trying to figure out if it matters where in the flow path I install them and what fitting types (JIC?) I need to source.

I have a BX1500 with a severely damaged bucket, LA181 loader. Everything is fine but the bucket. I noticed the LA203 and the LA181 buckets share the same dimensions (width, height, depth). They carry different part numbers with Kubota though. Researching a bucket replacement, I noticed most...

I'm looking at a used Kubota tractor they have listed, and the price seems really good. It even comes with a warranty. Has anyone here purchased from them before? How was your experience?

I have a 1999 bobcat 331 with hydraulic trouble. The boom lift cylinder drifts so bad I can't use the machine. This is the only circuit affected, I'm thinking I can rule out pump trouble. I can pick it up under extremely high rpm but immediately falls to the ground. The cylinder was rebuilt a...

2010 Kubota L2800 started spraying this tiny leak.Where is the best place to buy only what i need?I assume it needs a seal pack of some kind,but not 140 bucks for 6 or 7 rubber o rings.Any help would be appreciated

Hi, I'm new to the site. I did find a post related to my concern and did reply to it but the post is 4 years old and have not received a reply yet so I figured I would ask the question again. I just purchased a Ford 555C in great condition. I am having an issue with the backhoe. I can combine...

Well, not really boom, more like a very loud Pssssst! I have a 2655 cab/shuttle with 300 hrs on it. Fired it up to move a trailer around yesterday, and switched the AC on as it was warm for a change. Idled to the back of the lot to hook up, and the high pressure relief valve on the AC blew...

Hi all. I have a new to me RK37 with the backhoe option. I was using it the other day to dig a couple of holes for some new trees and it was barely able to get the boom all the way up especially if the other cylinders were extended. I had the rpms up around 2000. I also noticed that when i...

Does anyone have experience with a towable boom lift? Good? Bad? I've flirted on and off for years whether to buy one. I could use it for tree trimming (extensive), painting my barn and residence, for starters. I would prefer towable since I could use it in more than one location. But that...

Well about 7 years ago my M4700 left side boom cylinder leaked (linky) and I had it repaired at a reasonable price. But that guy seems no longer available and now my right cylinder needs rebuilding. Looking at Messicks a rebuild kit (just the rings) is about $50. Numerous Youtube videos...

Trying to get left bucket elevator cylinder off. Lower snapping no problem. Upper one not normal snap ring but is very thick with only a split, no holes like snap ring. Any help would be appreciated. Large snap ring tool won't get it? Help please

I'm building a small shelter for my RV. The scissor trusses weigh about 50lbs. I need to to lift them 17' at the top of the truss or 14' at the underside center. My plan: Use 3 14' 2x4 screwed together (poll) and ubolted to 1 pallet fork with a hook on the 14' end. I use the front end loader...

Since acquiring a tractor back in April, we have been steadily buying implements. The 2-disc Ferguson Plow and 20-disc harrow were in the weeds on our lot, everything else we picked up used. Today we got the scrape blade and brush hog. previously acquired were the 5-time cultivator (pictured...

Hi All, Its my first post, so please be kind :) I recently acquired a new to me Kubota L39 with about 600 hours. Its been fantastic learning the machine and using it at the house for some work on the drive, leveling some spots etc. Earlier this week I garnered up enough ambition to go through...
