This happened to my L3901 with AMR8977A tires. Stem is off an everything. A couple of questions: 1. can you reseat it without a tire machine? 2. what is the valve stem part number? Thanks!
I just used a generic valve stem I got from Napa. It was one with a larger butt on it. I’ve had to reseat it before using a compressor and fire/starting fluid. It works everytime but if your not confident in doing it that Wild West way I suggest taking it to a shop. Keep in mind these are a heavy side wall tire so even though they may not look flat, once you put any kind of load in the bucket or side load that’s when they De-bead. I’ve made it a habit to either give them a kick before I use the machine or the first time I lift somthing up I look over the side and see how much the tires are squatting. Good luck.
@ProfVulture amzn.to/48yxn42 Here’s what I’ve got on one of my rims. Has been working for probably a year atleast with no issues. I think I got it at Napa if I remember right.
It’s doing alright. Deff found some things I do and don’t like about it. I still like the machine a lot. I’ll do an updated video on it here this summer now that it’s racking up some hrs.
@@BuiltbyBurns sick man. Ive been on bobcats my whole life from the family business, and I want to branch out and buy my own and I’m really torn. The local cat dealer is awesome and the bobcat dealer is okay in terms of service. But I don’t know what machine to go with. If you were to do it over again wound you get another bobcat?
I would if cat was my other option. Takeuchi is the only other brand I would seriously consider going with if I was to buy another brand. We have just had really good luck with them at work, especially for the way they are treated. If I was goin to do it all over again I would have probably went with a t750 or t650. The t66 is nice but there’s some design flaws that are annoying that I feel the t750 and t650 don’t have. If your looking for a machine for around the house then the t66 is a good unit for that. But if your looking for somthing to use every day it would probably not be the perfect bobcat model I would want. As much as I hate to say that, I’m trying to be as honest as possible.

@@BuiltbyBurns just any old valve stem? The diameter on the wheel looks pretty big? Thanks!

Yea it’s a company truck, I only drive it because I have to!
How’s your t66 holding up man?
