Thank you very much. I knew I had missed something. Appreciate the help! :)

I went to change the coolant on my relatively new to me but used RTV. I was surprised to find 2 radiators. After some research I did drain the coolant and verified that both radiators were empty. I flushed the system (refilled with distilled water and ran for 10-15 minutes and got it warm). Then...

I see that Gearmore still makes the pin on pallet forks. Looks like a possible project in my future. Did you buy your new pins from Gearmore? Or make some?

The lift capacity loss is why I have never done the quick attach. I thought it looked like you had it but looking at the photo's again I realize now that I didn't see a QA. Did you make your pallet forks? How much time does it actually take to change from bucket to forks? I just got a welder so...

Just curious I have a B2910 with the LA402 loader and have been thinking of trying to put on a quickattach for the bucket/forks/etc in place of the current pin on bucket. Did you notice much change in lift capability when you added the quickattach? Thanks.

This is a device you can install that will give you an audible alarm when the power comes back on and you are on generator power. http://www.nooutage.com/thp108.htm

That's funny! Here if we see mountains and forests we know it is a scam. But then, I do live in Kansas! :)

I will be curious how your project turns out. I have also considered changing my B2910 but wasn't sure how much loader capacity I would lose. I often push the limit of what it will pick up now and am not sure I would be happy with any decrease. but having a nice set of pallet forks or a...

Thanks for the detailed response. The suggestions here are certainly better then buying a rarely used expensive tool. Cumbres

your tools were for the inside rings. I was curious of options for installing the center seal on the outside of the piston. I didn't make myself clear. Sorry. PoTreeBoy: I didn't realize there were measurements in the manuals to make tools to aid in getting that seal on. I will do some...

I actually have a set of those and they were useful. This is what the guy in the video used to get that one ring on the outside of the piston. https://www.freedomracing.com/fluid-seal-ring-installation-set-j-46620.html?___SID=U

I believe it was about $45 for the loader arm kit. Not the curl bucket.

It was on the Kevin Robinson channel.

I had a loader cylinder start leaking around the packing on the main loader cylinder. Never worked on one before but thought it would be an interesting project. So using the modern learning method I found a youtube video and watched it. That video showed that it was difficult to get the...

A weird question for you all. I have a B2910 with the LA402 (I believe) loader. Works great with dirt. But if I put forks on the tractor (attached to the bucket) or lift a heavy item I find it difficult to feather the controls. With the forks the bucket will rotate down very quickly. With a...
