I agree. I hate going away from oem. But figured if I cpupd get one that went in front of the original cooler. I wouldnt hurt the engine cooling?

Hello everyone! I have been clearing a spot to build a shop at my house with my 450b loader. As i was leveling some ground I noticed a line of oil in the dirt :cry: when I got pff to inspect, I found oil seeping from the fins of the small cooler attached to the radiator. I had the same problem a few...

Saw this thread figured id update. I put the loader pointing down hill. Crawled under expecting the worst. Started looking how to remove the pans and saw a rubber hose loose. Reattached to the hard line and the leak was gone! Then my hydraulic cooler sprung a leak. It's repaired waiting to be re att...

Thanks for the tips guys. I will probably wait a few more weeks for the heat and bugs to die down. I hope to get alot of work done this winter... When this crawler is running it really tears it up

I pulled the seat off and I see the line you are talking about, Im sure it is on that line somewhere. the hose was still tight on the metal line though. I did have a limb wedge itself up in there, so Im guessing it tore the rubber somewhere down the line. Time to drop the pans, something I have been...

Im glad someone else can feel my pain about the bugs! It would be nice if I could pop the seat off and the line was right there! I would feel stupid for not having thought of doing that already though I will probably go out and check today

I have also decided that when I tear into the machine I am replacing ALL of the hard to get to lines. I hate down time and having to redo the same job. especially out in the still spider infested South carolina woods! Here are a few pics of my loader, http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r38/jeepercam...

as fast as i poured the oil in it was running back out. Im pretty sure its the line running to the pump, I take it that it is up under the pan?

I drove it in reverse to a better location. The whole property is woods, so no shop or anything. and taking it somewhere else to work on it is probably out of the question. I do have a mobile welder/generator and a compressor so Im sure I can get it done. I know one of my hard lines going down the l...

Hey guys. I have had my loader now for over a year. Very low hour machine. has the drott 4n1 and a backhoe. I bought the machine becuase we have 72 acers. lots of it is overgrown underbrush and smaller trees. I had been using the machine having no problems. It is really strong and I really have been...
