If the front end shakes when getting over 25mph you need to tighten/replace the scissorlink bushings.
How many hrs on this rig? I'm guessing it's an early model that does not have the greasable scissor link bushings and pins?
I wore out 2 sets of pins and bushings in 2500 hrs on a 4710. Also had to replace boom lift pins etc about the same time.
Dutch,
This is a VERY experienced rig! :-) Has over 3000 hrs. I know there are some wear points, Im just hoping to get through the year, then do some repairs, through the winter, as it needs some tender loving care! Its a 2001 model.
