Nice stack of skid steers you got right here brother! Best wishes hope things are still going strong post pandemic. I want to buy an easy to work on tracked loader with no dpf. I was thinking pre 2014 bobcats with the low pressure fuel injection for ease of maintenance. I have no idea about other brands to look at. Maybe caterpillar? Maybe deere? Whos reliable and not crazy with replacement part prices?

Hi I just bought a 2ND hand skid steer , boom is dropping on its own, about 6 inches in 10 mins, when up high, any advice thanks

Could be seals on cylinders . Check that first.

I have brand new cat skid steers and used ones I use in my business daily. The booms always go down. This isnt necessarily a problem. You can go to a cat dealership and start a brand new skid steer, raise the boom and shut it off. It will slowly go all the way back down.

yes over time, but a skid steer should not do that while you are watching it.

thanks for that
