I have yet to tinker with the hydraulics. Although I’m timid because I’ve never worked on hydraulics before. I picked this thing up for $150. Score! Helluva wheelie-rig! Put a trailer on that pin and you can haul some serious dirt. I just bought a C160 Auto and was thinking of selling the 1054A but this might have changed my mind completely. Build a FEL on my C160 and I can start an excavation company, lol. VERY COOL! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 9,775 #127 Posted May 24, 2025 @PeacemakerJack like that unit ! had a lot of good results of patina oiling paint , originally used for recovering neglected paint , multi phase , very gentle / time cleaning , but your unit , needs a PATENA RECOVERY , recommend a penetrating oil spray down , let it sit for days out of the weather , except hot sun , hot sun will hold the oil to the chalky paint , give it a darker perfect period look , would wipe it down with a clean oiled cloth ,nothing else . pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One way to convert to JPEG is to copy the image in Photos and paste it into a page in NOTES. Then copy the JPEG from NOTES and paste into the forum post.

I couldn’t open the pictures either and was afraid maybe it was scam. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
