I hope the thread didn't die!!

I looked up the specs on the V2203, is 39HP right? Are you worried that it wont have enough compared to the perkins with 55HP

I had the thing done, basically just needed to install the head and i was done. I took it to the machine shop and they said it was cracked. Stopped right away and sold it to try and recoup cash. I ordered another perkins from England for way to much (3k) and now its stuck in EPA customs !! ha...

I was hoping to see a picture of the new Kubota motor mocked up in the 825. I didnt know how you planned to hook up the throttle. Its exciting to see someone else working on their 825 its pretty rare im finding. Do you have any cracks in the frame? I have 2 right near the motor mounts that are...

Mine was the same way. Its in a Bobcat 825 and its a Perkins 4.108. Looks like identical setup. I sold mine on ebay a few days ago but I had all of the machining done, new liners, and polished crank. When I went to send the head in for valves and guides they told me it was cracked. I had over...

I have a Perkins motor coming in from England stuck in EPA customs right now. I really would love to see pictures of the throttle linkage and mounts. I would do this in a heart beat. Any other pictures to post up? Thanks for making this a thread!

I didn't get a chance to put a gauge on the hydraulics but I needed to move the drum off of my patio the other night. I figured I would give it a try one more time. It didn't lift it but when I put the RPM's up a little and pushed the lever to up position I was able to jump off the tractor and...

I can just throw a gauge onto any port that is a send line for the hydraulics? My FEL has quick attach fittings on them so i could just get a gauge and a reducer bushing to test it at one of those locations? Is it possible air is trapped? When i got the tractor the hydraulic fluid wouldnt even...

Had 100 lbs on it for twondays and it honestly didn't move an inch. Any ideas?

Isn't the max load capacity for the three point hitch assy. 800 lbs?

Here is how I did it - Cut the drum in half Drilled the holes for the all thread and bolted it in Put the knife plate into the drum for the draw bar filled er up with concrete! The drum itself with the rebar weights about 20 lbs.

Yea thats what i thought too, its frustrating since someone put an extension tube on my tractor for the dipstick and put some random dipstick in it which reads as 2 quarts is full. So whoever had it before me ran the tractor at 2 quarts for a while. I cant find a good picture of the dipstick...

Awesome thank you so much! I love this site!

I can defiantly try that. How much weight we talking?

Yes moved up and down without weight. I need to stand on it to move it down but figured that's normal. I put about 6 80lbs bags of concrete in the barrel so I should be under the max weight.
