West Tennessee | I understand your question and I'll bite on it. I bought a big old skytrack with a good motor but a known bad hydraulic pump one time. Gave the guy what I figured was about scrap price. Turns out the hydraulic pump was kind of an "overseas" type of deal and super hard to find. Also once upon inspection there were for sure pieces of brass in the hydraulic system already. There was NO WAY of rebuilding that pump. My scrap deal was just that. Then I had to load the thing on a trailer and haul it. So you can see my experience with hydraulic issues hasn't been good and thus my advice. If you have the time and are willing to chance that maybe it's an easy fix or even willing to spend the money and time then go for it. Now days I'd really prefer to buy something that runs and I can use just fine today. That said I just took on another big old project...you guessed it...it was cheap. See Below. I should have taken pictures of the patch job we were doing up there. But I couldn't post them anyway because they were NOT NAT approved. Time will tell how this pans out. I guess it's do as I say not do as I do. :-) Good luck whatever you decide.
