I've always thought that a crane would be nice to have and this one came up for sale for $75. Can I borrow one of your guys' trailers? :))

Well, if that Case 680E doesn't get fixed a big crane's the only way to load it onto a huge trailer to take it to the scrap yard I guess. :((

I thought somebody around here had a 680 parts unit forsale but I couldn't find the listing on CL. I did see a 680 already in parts in reading PA. Bit of a road trip lol.

Operator misuse or did something fall on the cylinders? I tried Google image search but the only hit was behind LinkedIn's login wall 🙄

I don't know Matt, but the power of hydraulics is what I think can do something like that.

:42: Reminds me of when our youngest son was still here. He was cleaning out his car and beat the mats against the tree out front when all of a sudden we heard squealing and saw him running across the yard flailing his arms around . It was quite the sight . :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Needless to say he found out the hard way that there was a basket ball sized nest up in the tree we did not know about and they did not like him beating on the tree . :rofl:
