Fishfiles 20,145 Posted March 11, 2023 I just hope you got all the debris out the system from the first hydrostatic failure , cause I have seen it turn into a vicious cycle of repeated failures ---------- might be a good idea to do your filters and screen again and see if anything is floating around Did Hydradyne have anything for you ?

_Wilson_™ 6,565 Posted March 11, 2023 Didnt have any magnetic check / drain plugs did it ? Some do while some don't .... One of ours (older model) has them, but the newer one doesn't .... And they do work... I never like seeing the effects, although glad those filings are attracted ... And not left for just floating the filter to trap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_Wilson_™ 6,565 Posted March 11, 2023 Figures.... They think just cause some are small tractor it won't be subjected to the use a big one will and it's just the opposite... Matter of fact they see more hard use because they can be are used more because of there size so size in the case matters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bcsman 1,382 Posted March 22, 2023 For all you backyard 5 acre farmers here's something to help your day go much more quickly...... Here's the story about this tractor from its debut 40 years ago to its resurrection again soon.... https://cowboystatedaily.com/2023/03/20/big-bud-worlds-largest-tractor-at-70000-pounds-is-back-after-40-year-break/ 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Wilson_™ 6,565 Posted March 22, 2023 Nice! Hm..... Cat drivetrain .... Thats one brand i thought would never come back... I'm kind surprised they didn't go with tracks for lower ground pressure (small foot print) but then again with one this large wouldn't surprise me if tracks were an option.... I'll be keeping up to date on this bad boy... I just hope this partnership last... I'm a bigger fan of cat then johndeere... That's why i was shocked when cat announced they would not be offering power option for over the road trucks in the United States .... That's exactly what happens when the big goof offs in Washington try to regulate things that are better left to the. Experts which the goverment is Not known for.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
