      What Tontosgold said is true. You also need more strength to hold the blade in position when sidecasting, especially when the blade is also tilted. You will find these cylinders to be larger on any dozer with a six-way blade.

        I’d keep that Desert Eagle on my hip if I was walking around there. Trouble is they are great stalkers and probably looking for a chicken dinner.

            Interesting. Yuchai also has an excavator presence in the US.

              The little Yuchai “Hy-Track” is a tiny little two cylinder tractor, not built for dozing work but rather strictly for pulling implements through rice paddies and orchards. The nice thing about the Hy-Track configurations is that the final drive components are in the sprocket hub, namely a planetary gear set (just like the excavators). At one point I was considering completely gutting my Yuchai dozer’s entire drive train and installing a hydrostatic system from a skid steer, but it only made it as far as the drawing board before life got in the way. You definitely could swap undercarriages with a Hy-Track skid steer, but from the skid steer boards I’m on, I see those guys are not without problems either. It would be an expensive proposition without any promise of ROI.

                Sorry, no pictures came through.

                You can try the usual dealers that help support this website. At the top of this page select “Business Directory”. There is also Eastwind Tractors in “down under”.

                  The rods must be adjusted to the proper timing sequence.

                    I believe the aftermarket gear reduction starters are US made

                    Yep, Bob I saw a older thread from Keno Tractor, called them and talked to a guy named Adam which helped me with the starter problem. Great service from those guys, you can’t get anyone here in the east or mid east to listen once you say Chinese built.

                    There is always Tommy, Phillip, and Ronald that service the mid-West and East coast, but Keno is a stand-up source also. I’ve used them several times. Can’t go wrong. Anyway, glad you’re up and running again.

                        Have you contacted any of the Jinma dealers? Have you contacted Ronald or Tommy?
