Re: Case E60 Dump Cart
Gerry, The wheels if original have bushings, not needle or roller bearings, seem to hold up well. I think that someone has installed wheelbarrow tires as you mention, and they will not carry the load the the car is capable of.

Re: Another thing to look at on my 648
Great job on those cylinders Jeff! Oh, the rod that has damage. Normally that has to be smoothed completely otherwise it'll destroy your new seals.

Everytime I can't figure out something on my phone or desktop I have to go find a 10 year old to help....DavidBarkey wrote: ↑Wed Feb 28, 2024 1:53 pm My son was able to get me back on and solved the issue .

Re: A challenge to our dealers or others...
