Cheap Bourgault Hydraulic Hose

[bucket]

So you guys want a $750K drill to cost a cool million dollars?

It's all ****en nuts.

No drill is worth it....the longest piece of steel in any drill is cut from from seconds from a steel mill...no piece is full length....

Think about it when you buy a drill....

Then the tires are seconds....

It's all made out of garbage. ...to last long enough that the new salesman can wash his hands of any responsibility. ...

Completely agree. I am so sick and tired of fixing and replacing hoses, cylinders, and seals on newer bourgault implements. I know farmers are often guilty of empty threats (not buying canola seed anymore etc.) but I think I am done with borgault unless it is older than 2007.

I looked at a 2 year old bourgault drill once and the salesman said they would give me a credit to work on the bushings....only an hour an opener or something like that....then I said its only two ****ing years old....It shouldn't need rebuilding and if it does it is priced too high....but it was one of their better customers....well....someone is ****ing someone on this deal and it won't be me....turned me off bourgault after that conversation....

How much will a new 750k drill sell for at Ritchie Bros when it’s 3 years old?
This loss in value on slightly used drills seems crazy.

Are Morris or New Holland better for qualifying hydraulic hoses, rams, tires, etc?

I dont think they are any better, the loss in value is only crazy to the owner, it's a steal for the 2nd buyer

When I see an older tire on my
Stuff , and I see it is a worn out Firestone
I breathe a a sigh of relief.
Or have some hope.
Or a super old Dyna torque Goodyear. Maybe ok.

But any Titain Goodyear
Carlile you know will be junk.
And the newer the implement tire.
The more junky.
Yes really environment friendly all this crap .

The lost oil from crap hyd hose.
On the plus side , it provides
A good living to our local hose
Repair guy.
So much business , I fear he makes them all night in his sleep.
When he gets a chance to do that.

And the for construction trade
Putting up buildings to save this crap from the rays of the sun .
And I think those hoses are still
Going to blow

Okay on the TIRE side, nearly 100% farmers, truckers, fuel trucks have Chinese tires. They are half price, but how do they last?

Load Range G, not too bad. I think you get your money's worth
Load Range F not so much

How old are those tires???? Look pretty good ...older than 5 years you got the life out of them anyway...

Thats a fixable tire...Cant they vulcanize that tire...I put a shovel through a tire when I was a kid...they fixed it up and it lasted for as long as we had the tractor....back then was a long time....

Valcanizing is a lost art, like turning pins and bushings in a dozer track, just replace.

They dont.

Shes onshore tires only around here. I'll make an exception for s. Korea and Japan.

On highway tractors and trailers for me its:
Michelin steers
Bridgestone drives
Firestone/Michelin trailer

Cheap hoses and more

The quality of equipment has went straight down the toilet since the adoption of cheap China junk in a effort to increase profit margins for the manufacturers. After hoses tires bearings castings cylinders and all this over priced junk fails market share and sales will eventually stop. Can’t wait for this to happen to show the manufacturers that we don’t enjoy fixing new or well maintained equipment.
