    Drilling suggestions

    I have a Rezloh(serrated) Edge from a TC40 tractor I had. The bucket that I got with my L180 doesn't have any holes so the holes will need to be precise. I will check with the local rental stores in Topeka to see if they have any. Might see if somebody close in the construction industry might...

    Drilling suggestions

    Any suggestions on drilling 9 or 10 holes in a 72" skid steer bucket. Holes will need to be 5/8" diameter. I imagine the cutting edges on those are hardened steel???(Maybe) Anyway, any suggestions or am I making a big deal out of nothing, which I usually do. Just didn't want to spend all day...

    Help me choose a lift.

    It was for the System I, included delivery from Iowa(around Des Moines), installation, and the Mohawk weight guage that you install on the lift to tell you roughly how heavy a given vehicle is. The dealer was super nice, just a great guy. I was just trying to justify the additional $3100.00...

    Help me choose a lift.

    Should have read your post a little better. If you have an 11' requirement, the XPR-10CX probably won't work. Bendpak makes some others, but I don't think they are clear floor. Just go to their website. If that is the case, better make it a Mohawk.

    Questions about "The General"

    I know you are only asking about the "General" and not many folks have replied, but if you are looking for a metal bldg, I bought one through www.premiersteel.org. All went well, and fit great. One thing about these metal building companies is that most are actually only metal building...

    Want a two post lift, suggestions.

    Yeah, I do like the footprint of the Mohawk, but man are they pricey. I poured concrete where the post will sit a bit thicker. It is probably about 2 feet deep x 4 foot wide and 11-12 foot across w/ rebar. Everyone seems to think their lift is better than the other, which is understandable...
