Over weight limit for bucket

[Magnum783]

Murphy is one lurking dude. If someone ever finds him tie him up and let each one of us thrash him independently

If your worried have him climb trees a year to thin down to acceptable weight There are boatloads of people in this business that make me shake my head thinking, "you would never have made it when i started". Yeah blah blah discrimination, spit, fart

They gave me a price for a new bucket for $1547.51 and labor cost will be $124.00

Altec has a mobile service here. They can do anything at our yard except if the entire boom had to come off. Then we would have to go to Pomona,Ca. That is a two hour drive in a boom.

Bondo, duct tape and baling wire just have no place in this biz anymore, I guess...

Well they still do it but it aint no good.

I have other trucks, plus if it was an emergency, they have a number for that also. A lot of repairs do not need to be done by them, but others do. I will not call them for a hydraulic leak or blown hose's or stuff like that. It is always a beautiful day,,,,

That seems fair. Seeing how you get so worked up about a hitch pin, how do you handle this repair with your crews?
