  1. some ladder trucks had a basket on the end of the ladder.
  2. if it is the same all rpm.it could be tired control valves, or worn linkage and pins. with machine off feel if there is play before the valves start working. that will be worn pins/rods. if it is tight, it may just be tight valves and you are being "heavy" on them when we got the brand 2023 315 cat excavator, i had to relearn how to run it as the controls are VERY sensitive. the old 94 312 excavator controls were so worn out you had to be heavy on the sticks. the 315 you look at the controls and they respond. my friend had an old john deer 310 double ender that had worn out valves, rods, pivots, and levers. when we replaced everything it was like a new machine. no more fighting with the controls.
  3. are you are full throttle, or idle? full throttle does weird things to hydraulics. i very rarely run more than 1/2 throttle in machines.
  4. It is all about how it is speced out. Packard engine with eaton-fuller "auto" trans is junk. Cummins x15 its allison is the way to go. But. The cummins/allison combo is around 30 gran more.
  5. You obviously do not live in an area whr there are stupid criminals. Unlike smart ones that steal bland one of 5 million cars on the road at the same time, the rocket scientists steal the rarest and flashiest that can find

  17. because this thread is one big train wreck. trying to make sense of it will only give you a headache... 🤣
  18. this is how i became a trucker. my older brother decided he was superman and wanted to throw 100 lb bales all day. i was 13 and proved i could drive the 49 International L-190 with the 501 CI Red diamond engine and quad box trans. i would run the loaded trailers to the barn and swap them out for emptys. i never threw another bale of hay after that. and got the job of driving that truck everywhere. by fall i was delivering grain to the co-op 40 miles away.
  19. no biggie. i will take the looker that cant cook. i am a good cook. 😁
