Mini skid

[maggies dad]

I found a Kanga 420 mini that has a bucket, a auger with a 9,18, and 30" bit, and a tiller for 3500.00. It has a lot of hours but the guy says it runs good. It has a 20 hp Honda engine, and foam filled tires as well. What do yall think? I don't know much about Kanga, I don't have a number on the hours cause it doesn't have an hour meter.

The auger sells around $1500, $400 a bit used, the tiller is around $2500 used, check ebay and otherwise, I have been watching for an auger so I know the rough prices.
Just sayin.................

I have a Kanga, what do you want to know? They are built like tanks!

 

[maggies dad]

all I know is that I screwed up and thought about it 10 min. to long! It's gone and I am a sore puppy again from dragging brush all day. I am going to buy the next one I can afford one way or the other. Rborist1, Do you have any problems getting parts? Would you buy the same machine again, and which odel do you have? Ok got to go find the asprin and Bengay, thanks.

I have never had to get parts yet but most engine and hydraulic parts can be found locally. We have a Kanga track machine not sure of the exact model #. If I were shopping a brand new machine I would look at a Boxer. We have a Ramrod and the Kanga and the Ramrod out performs the Kanga but the build quality of the Kanga is better. The Kanga was a good deal when we bought it used almost 5 years ago.
