Dynalift D4P80 Boom cable fix

Just picked this up last week and main issues are the cable is broke and fork tilt not functioning. Not able to locate much info like books or parts suppliers. Any help much appreciated. Clock shows 2200 hours and am wondering if I should just pin the stinger and run it shorter. Thanks, Ric

I might have some books on in pdf form.I will take a look. Thanks Ed

Thanks much for your help. This has the John Deere motor in it.

Can anybody tell me if any other telehandlers use a single cable for the third boom? Parts are obsolete so trying to locate a couple of these cable ends to make a new one.

If you know anyone in your area with cranes. Ask them who they get their rigging from. As said by Tool_King any good rigging supplier can make those.

We have these guys at the port of Everett working on it. http://www.dunlapindustrial.com/ind...MEKsrW3zEGlsEOpun8vYKDxODVQLGY_hoCsbMQAvD_BwE They located some similar 1 1/4 threaded fittings but without the squared ends.

My thoughts are the square ends come from crimping them on the cable.

Willie59 has a good point. It does take one heck of crimper to lock them of the cable though.

Thanks to that nice guy that sent me some books I now know that those cables are to be torqued to 150lbs so you do need to be able to hold it somehow. Also says to re torque every 50 hours. Probably why they quite making them that way.

If any one else would like a copy of the manuals just post email address for me to send it to.

Have a machine that starts, drives and steers, but the boom hydraulics are not operating. Thanks ( [email protected] )

Hello tool_king, I have a customer that purchased one of these, wow its kinda old. He paid 14000. Now he wants it fixed. So far have resealed 6 rams, fixed a valve issue but luckily no boom issues yet. If you could email me your manuals as well it would be much appreciated. [email protected] It is the d4p80 model with the john deere 4239tf engine.
