    FLU419 Owner/Operators in KC, Omaha, Des Moines Area?

    I would imagine that most, if not all, videos of FLU419s are on available on You Tube. If I'm guessing right, you're interested in the SEE and there seems to be quite a few of those videos. Not much if you're after the HMMH, and hardly anything about the HME. I'm also trying to understand...

    Watch one of the videos?

    FLU419 SEE HMMH HME Owners group

    For clarification, the odd and difficult to disassemble cylinders are used on the HMMH, not the SEE. Not that the SEE's cylinders come apart all that easily.

    FLU419 SEE HMMH HME Owners group

    Since there's no snow yet, the HMMH has seem more use than normal (and the SEEs less). Loaded a trailer onto another trailer the other day, as I sold both to the same guy. Today I put the new 10-foot mower on top of a container. Partially because I wanted it off the ground, partially because I...

    Brent, unless I misunderstood your post, the reason the seals didn't fit the loader is that it's a Schmidt, not a Case.

    I'd think that if the air supply, or the cylinder itself, isn't working right for the 4WD part, it wouldn't prevent the lockers from working.

    Garaging A FLU,,what do you do? STEEL garage companies experiance?

    Okay, mine's a Utility King, and I'm very happy with it. As Daybreak pointed out, decide on what you want, find the best possible contractor, and go at it. We also have a few Morton buildings, plus the Utility King, and the procedure was about the same. Morton is far more expensive, but takes...

    Just bought a FLU 419!!!

    Welcome, Mountain, and good to hear that you got yours through the system. Not that I understand the urge to drive them on the road, but hey, it's one way to wear out those useless Michelins a FLU comes with.

    Garaging A FLU,,what do you do? STEEL garage companies experiance?

    Naturally, I don't remember the name of my metal garage now, but I'll try to remember to look at the sign in the morning. In the meantime, my main suggestion would be to go as large as humanly possible. Rob a bank if you must, but build it big. Also, I'd recommend a heated floor (go back, but...

    MOGFEST in the midwest

    Karl, I suggested Colorado as I know that there are several Unimogs (almost a lot of FLUs, actually) in the area, so no, I'm not talking about the D-Day park. Couch Off Road is by Denver. Jay mentioned the size of his place when we talked, but unfortunately I don't remember how large it is...

    Thanks. For the most part, whatever tasks the HMMH is used for could be done with the tractor. But it's usually easier, and definitely more fun, to use the crane or the more meaningful forklift.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Took the CUCV camping.

    Did some reorganization yesterday, and once again, I don't know how I ever got along without a crane. And no levers (or anything else) got hurt in the process.

    MOGFEST in the midwest

    Jay (Couch Off Road) would be happy to see us gather at his place. Haven't seen it yet, but he has quite the playground we could use. Also, he offered to educate us on some of the quirks the FLUs have. Karl, you want to take it from here?

    Jay Couch just might be kind enough to let people play at his place.

    Being selfish and not wanting to drive too far, how about in Colorado? There seems to be a fair amount of FLUs in the general area.

    If you look in this thread, not too many pages back, there are photos of home made versions. Or, you can just buy one from Expedition Imports.

    SEE - Cold weather hydralic issues

    I'd change the fluid, regardless of what's in there, if you haven't already. And like tennmogger says, clean the filter while you're at it. And check belt tension. I have a loader that's lame, like yours (but minus the noise), and one that works well. Haven't got around to figuring out what the...

    SEE - Cold weather hydralic issues

    Jay Couch (Couch Off Road) made some mods described on the SEE, HHMH, and HME thread some time back. You may want to look into finding that one.
