Question- I have a question for you regarding the Compact Track Loader for Big Horn NF. This is written as a specification peculiar to one brand name with the "height to hinge pin of 134". I have checked all of the other manufacturers that offer a unit this size and they are all the same at ~ 125" height which is more than enough to fit over a dump body. Can this specification be opened up to allow for competitive quotes?

Response- Thanks for your inquiry. It would appear there was terminology conflicts. I reviewed the market research data and specifications. Our intent was to have competition amongst the most common providers of the high flow hydraulics at the 100+ horsepower range. I will work with my customer to make ensure an updated solicitation amendment is posted.

Fix- Amendment #2 accomplished to change hinge pin height to 125” from 134”.
