My local dealer quoted me a price on sevice on my bobcat s130-over $400.00. Has anybody done a do-it-yourself job to try to save a buck. I'd like to keep my bobcat and still be able to eat!! Are there any sites that can help?- Thanks

I dont see why you cant do it yourself, if they can do it. The only part thats hard on loaders is getting your hands and tools in those tight spots. I service Case 1845's all the time for a demolition company. I dont know if bobcats are alike but the case's take a HTO additive with 30w oil in the hydraulic system. Just make sure you get the right fluids and filters. But I imagine they charge that much because they're working in those tight spots and they figure you cant help yourself so they ream you good. The company I work for DONT OWN A GREASE GUN so servicing these loaders is 2 day job because I have to disassemble and wire wheel the oxidation off of everything.

if you dont already have em, get an owners manual and a shop service manual. i did all the maintenance on our 1845 case skidder. the shop manual cost maybe 65 dollars. oils, filters, air and fuel filters arent that hard to do. messy tho.....
