While we're on the subject of self lifting and hydraulic connectors and what not, does anyone know the name of the quick disconnect style for the backhoe on a SEE? Its a -14 jic which is strange enough but the QD variety is new to me? Disregard, I'm going to just find an easy available. Quick...

Would love to follow suit but the wheel widening is a barrier,

I don’t know. If you want to ship it there, you should contact some shipping people‘s and get a quote, I’ll help load it, but I have too many irons in the fire to do that legwork for you. Sorry.

It's been off for a couple years. Don't need the extra weight. When something falls from the sky whilst I'm sitting in it, I'll take it as a sign. Looks better without also.

Anybody want my FOPS? Free with pick up. 🤪

My advice... screw the pressure relief in until you can lift the front off the ground. I've been using mine like that for three years. Also get rid of those check valves mentioned, totally counterproductive. Sometimes I have to back off the controls when I get belt squeal on the pump, but...

Also on searching; If you type the search term then "site:www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/flu419-see-hmmh-hme-owners-group.115476" (which is this thread url, results from the relevant pages will show up. Works pretty well just from your normal address bar. I use DuckDuckgo but the syntax is...

One word of caution. The geometry of the schmidt loader is such that pushing things with it collapses the lift rams and lifts the front of the SEE. Doesn't work super great unless the stuff you're pushing is snow.

I have replaced all those belts without doing anything but taking off the skid plate. Just go over the fan and loosen the alt tension.

warning light sending unit is located on the side of the heater / blower in my SEE. Switch is the big red button, relay... no idea.

If memory servs it's a smallish code 61. Any hydro shop should have or be able to get it. Get the hose off (or cut both end fittings off), get some calipers and start measuring. Gates has an ok web interface, there's probably a good shop within a phone call distance that could walk you...

Yes, this!

Also AW32. Haven't bothered to change the "power steering" from engine oil.

Shouldn't it be FLUsee?

Have fun getting it installed. I wanna see a play by play of that for sure. Nice score.
