Not a good day after work!
We fixed this Tink bucket frame over the last couple days. Running a day late, customer is antsy, cattle feed op.

got it done today, eq co supposed to pick up first thing tomorrow. I go to test it out and knock down some little dirt piles in our yard. Tire is a little low, doesn’t seem like a biggie but I have no exp with loader tires. Feels funny after a few mins…Dangit!!
@timg help!!! Picked it up, tried air soap water, no luck, leaks from the o ring area no matter how we wrassle or position it. Had my wife bring my son out to help (next we were gonna move some big firewood rounds up out of the retention basin where I had dumped them
Because I needed the tilt trailer in a hurry)
so we’re fighting the thing to no avail. Two forklifts out there, one stuck…OK, fine, get the starting fluid! You know you can make a loader Jump?!


So I go slam more air in and see the o ring blown out in pieces. Apparently I’d pinched it. So forget it were sunk for tonight. Put everything back in the shop and lock up and hook the trailer up to get Hurricane David tree trimming cleaned up from our yard and neighbors…bleeeehh…
tomorrow I will be waiting on the tire shop’s doorstep early…
