Having tracked a 450c track loader about 5 miles on the grass edge of a road (and back at the end of the day) with a couple of frozen track segments, I can guarantee that your back and neck will hate you for the next few days following your 30 mile trek. Lots of Aleve and rum and cokes helped me. If...

I have a 450C and a 9300 series back hoe attachment. The back hoe is a beast that will dig thru just about anything. The down side is that it is very heavy. The machine "hobby horses" when tracking along although a front bucket full of rock helps. If you don't need the full capability of the back ho...

I have a 450C track loader. The "C"s have the oil filled clutches as previously mentioned which are better especially if the machine will sit unused for extended periods of time. One thing no one has mentioned, if you are tall (I am 6'5") you might fit better in the 450 operator station. Also, commo...

The lights on my 450c track loader work but with the big bucket on the front they don't do much good.

Thanks

I recently had my injector pump rebuilt by these people http://www.bkdiesel.com/shop/roosa-master-injection-pump/ Quick service, helpful and from what I have heard not overpriced. Buy the "Umbrella seal tool" and give them a smear with diesel when you replace them and thread the shaft back into the ...

I have a 9300 back hoe on my 450C track loader. The machine is very tail heavy with the hoe on the back. The hoe is a brute, will dig almost anything. There are 2 different hydraulic pumps for the machine the larger one is if you have the back hoe. You will need the mounting adapter and the bottom m...

Hello all: While using the backhoe attachment on my 450c track loader the boom function became very sluggish and jerky. It also wanted to float up while digging unless a little down pressure was applied before dipper in. Other functions (stabilizers, swing, dipper and curl) appear to operate normall...

There were several things. The cam for the HP side was in backwards (one way for clockwise rotation flip it for ccw) There was something else that they explained that I did not fully understand.

Total bill came to $740. Shipping back included.

Hello all: Did not want you to think that this was an ask and run. Long story short, I bought a complete rebuild kit for the fuel injector pump, carefully disassembled the pump, installed the replacement parts and reinstalled the pump. No joy. Removed, repeated the disassembly, inspection and reasse...

DBaker98:

What is the contact information for the gentleman that rebuilt your pump?

Rick

Thanks for the info guys. I will be back to the machine on 3 July. and will be continuing the investigation then.

Scotty: I did the air compressor trick on the line to the fuel tank, no improvement. How difficult is a remove/replace and repair for the self destructing, mouse turd producing governor ring? There is no rebuild outfit near me (Bahamas). Are rebuilt injector pumps available for less than a king's ra...

Looked at fuel injector pump today. The pump is a Roosta Master #108435MD (as best I can read from the metal tag on the pump. In my search for "Mouse Turds" I removed the small rectangular inspection port, center bottom, held on by two slotted machine screws. The chamber behind the cover was filled ...
