My tractor is still down, I had it back up, and the engine began to smoke from the injector pump being too rough, as well as a liner issue. The liner issue turned out not be my problem- the mfg of the sleeves has agreed to pay for a resleaving the two suspect units and partially payment a spliting the tractor again.
I could not find a reasonably priced 4BT injector pump, so I redid the 4FC1.
I had my forklift attachment be stolen during the teardown. The forklift attachment uses the 3pt hitch, a support bar system that ties to the axle, a lower hydraulic cylinder that attaches to the drawbar mount, as well as another one that runs at the toplink position.
The problem is that next week I need to pick up my milling machine. It is on a pallet that is 5 foot wide and 6 foot long.
Is a 2500 lb Bridgeport going to be too top heavy to safely allow a flat bed wrecker to lower and angle the bed, and then use straps and chain hook to the machine and pallet so that the flat bed wrecker can then drive out from under it ?
Thanks. Had some medical issues and I don't feel comfortable towing. I contacted one place about using a truck and forklift and they want $922 and me do the work with their equipment. Don't need the liability- they wouldn't operate their forklift on my property. Had some health problems as well, and I don't feel comfortable trailering right now.
