Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Bring a trailer does tend to attract the big bids. A lot of impulse buyers with deep pockets. They have sold SEEs for similar bucks with the loader and backhoe removed with big tires.Did anyone see the FLU419 that just sold on Bring a Trailer? It was located in North Carolina. Went for $32,000.00 and no hydraulic tools.

I agree, given its rarity and military background I expect with the right write up someone would snap it up and then figure out what they would do with it afterwards.I have considered listing the HME there, if for no other reason because some of the Burning Man crowd might see it.
After all, it's one of the few stock vehicles that would look right in place there.
I went to go take a picture but it looks as though the dash has to come out, sorry.Does anyone have a photo of the back of the ignition switch with the wires attached? The mice, or a rat, chewed off all of the wires from the switch and took the wires away to build a nest. Unfortunately, the nubbins of the wires left on the switch don't match the schematic entirely. It is obvious that the wiring to the switch was repaired more than once during the Army days and now the rodents have come again.
Not a problem - thanks for looking. I may have figured it out now. Those mice love those wires!I went to go take a picture but it looks as though the dash has to come out, sorry.
The hydraulic tools on the FLU419 are made by Stanley Infrastructure. You undoubtedly have a Stanley Infrastructure dealer near you in Colorado. If not, I have purchased repair parts from the following dealer in Georgia.Does anyone know where to get seals for the breaker and rock drill? I have been using mine extensively and they are now leaking pretty bad. BTW, Dexpan works great!
You are sure enough geting your money's worth out of your SEE, Davestaco; for sure.Does anyone know where to get seals for the breaker and rock drill? I have been using mine extensively and they are now leaking pretty bad. BTW, Dexpan works great!
Wow that looks like hard digging. No pictures of the front end loader lifting that load. I am in South Central Colorado (San Luis Valley) and realize how lucky I was with volcanic ash to dig.Does anyone know where to get seals for the breaker and rock drill?

Who's idea was it to wrap wires in soybeans?Not a problem - thanks for looking. I may have figured it out now. Those mice love those wires!
I have been able to get the tires on / off by myself. To do it you need to play with the jack until the height is just right, then use a spade under the tire to wiggle it up and down until you can get a lug or hopefully 2 on. Then jack the SEE up and man handle the wheel until you can line up the other lugs. Of course it is easier if you have help, but I am pretty anti-social.Apparently you haven't seen me in the 2017 world strongman competition.
Of course, I wasn't in it - which is likely why you didn't see me.
