very cool video good find
but I would gladly take that 980 even before the rebuild, it would be a dream compared to this old 988 I ran last summer loading rock into the crusher. :D :rolleyes:

Great video.

Cats are so overbuilt.. When I first started working in FMC's automated division Cat sold us there automated division. I was sent to one of Cats warehouses in Ohio to familiarize myself with there equipment and I was shocked at how overbuilt there equipment was in every way. I walked up to one laser guided fork vehicle and grabbed the manual controller and moved the stick the wrong way and Bam! the forks punched two holes right through the concrete block like it was cardboard:eek: I then walked up to the guy we hired from Cat and said "I marked the seated fork height on the back wall to calibrate the vehicles with" .."by punching holes in the concrete block with the forks.." He laughed and said "If that is the most damage you do with one of these vehicles you are doing good" LOL. People made some funny and very dangerous mistakes while fixing and programming some of these vehicles. None by myself of course.:p

Your Welcome. That will be a fun career.:cool:

Re: Cat Certified Rebuild.
 

Scott is so right on the overbuilt I tried a bobcat T190 before I got the cat 247B That cat will do circles around the bobcat providing you put an " operator " in it .

Re: Cat Certified Rebuild.
 

Yah. I wonder how much it would cost to get a machine rebuilt?:confused:

Re: Cat Certified Rebuild.
 

sorry i know we all have our prefrences but i have to disagree lol i have tore up 2 247b cat loaders in a week and a half they were new i would run circles around a 247 with a T 190 bobcat and thats with a good operator in the cat lol sorry but my personal opinion is cat makes decent dozers they should leave the skid loaders to the guys that was makin them way back when

Re: Cat Certified Rebuild.
 

Henry we need to have a comp then , you in a 190 and me in my 247 renamed 953 BUT we need to do it in all conditions and over 800 hrs :D the t190 can move faster on a hard surface but I like to see it go where the 247 goes . also I have won that comp already . BUT it really boils down to the app. , the cat MTLs and ASV/terrex love the swamp the bobcats still like to stay on the sidewalk :p . My only Bytch with cat mtl and asv/terrex is the dang lugs you get 1500 hrs on the tracks and they start to fall of :confused: never had tread issue unless you put a skid steer op. on it who likes to just spin them :mad: At 2500hrs I have yet to put a new set of tracks on it Just used 1s ONLY because I ran out of larry lugs on a wknd and had a used 1 I had ready to put on .

RCTech9, yes I'm planning on taking lot's of picture's.
And let your son know, electronic's trouble shooting will make him more money than part's changer's. Learn how to use an occiliscope for chasing gremlin's! I alway's have the fault's (gremlin's) that the diagnostic computer doesn't catch.

10-4 Henry :rolleyes: and I'll bet that bobcat will come out of its tracks before I run the cat out of hers :p ( hint track tension ;) ) oh it's just a ford , gov motors , and the OLD dodge thing :p :rolleyes: they're all good in they're own applications , just cat is still cat and bobcat went through a couple co.

believe me it was pulling teeth for me to go cat but the IH's kinda died as for getting the parts :crying : and you can't beat the service :D
