I have a 1984 Toyota SDK8 that I bought a number of years ago. It is a great skid loader, but because they are no longer imported into the US, it is a real pain to find any info. I am going to start posting all of the information I have about it on this page, hopefully some other folks will add any information that they may have. Right now I am focused on getting the starter turning over reliably, it usually only turns over about once every four or five tries.
My bucket attachment is also all mangled up, I am curious if anyone has replaced their’s with a BobCat Quick Tach attachment plate?

Hi, Thanks for the pictures of your SDK8. I just bought one.
I have 2 problems that you might have encountered. First is I cannot get it to stay running. It will start and then dies right away. None of the lights light up on the dash so i assuming it is just a wiring problem. What engine is this?
Second
My pedals are stuck and only work together. The bucket will not go back up.
Thanks for any ideas.
I have two ideas.
1) The engine is a Toyota 2J. There is a EDIC control unit that moves the fuel control from off, on, and start. It moves the fuel off when it senses a loss in oil pressure. It seems as if many folks disconnect the EDIC, and operate the fuel control manually with a cable into the cab. That is the way mine is setup. You could test this pretty easily. It could also not be seeing oil pressure, that will also cause the EDIC to shut off fuel.
2) There is a safety interlock for the pedals, it sounds like it MAY be sticking on yours. Look for a rod that locks the pedals and the solenoid that controls it. Again, many people have hot wired this solenoid.
Where are you located?
hi, i have a 1989? 2sdk8. i noticed hydraulic oil in the drive gear housing(ran out of fill plug). guessing the hydr motor has a seal blown. any ideas? thanks
hi mate more than likely on your desil pump theirs a arm that is for a return for when you shut the engine down maybe its come off?or it could have a faulty fuse ,,as i have the same model myself .and your solinoid for your pedals seem like its broken down ,i did away with the solinoid on mine and now it works fine ,,hope this night be of some help to you cheers ,
phil do you no of any sdk8 being wrecked over their mate your help would be appreciated,cheers ,,
Hello Collect
I have a problem with the starter, burned all but unfortunately I can delete the serial number and I can not see it.
I would ask if someone can give me the number of starter
James, have you gotten anywhere with your motor seal? I think my SDK8 has a blown seal too on the left motor.. my left drive is choppy also, only does about half the speed of the right, suspect that is signs of bigger problems..
Being new to hydraulic maintenance, found an interesting read, hydraulic tutorials for any one interested, very informative http://www.hydraulicsupermarket.com/technical.html
hey thanks for the manual, just bought a 88 2SDK8 and rebuilding it , as for parts I email our local Toyota agent and he emails back part number and price – most of the parts seem to be ex Japan – some good info here – Bert , new Zealand
I’m trying to help a friend that just bought a 15 year old SDK8 (bobcat). We are looking for a svc manual and an engine fan. (killed the cat and broke blades off). Any help would be appreciated. Svc PDF or paper acceptable. Thanks, Tom
Gary -Toyota tell me the 2SDK8 were produced 1988 to 1993.
I have a 3SDK8 with slower speed on rhs and a bit chattery. Any ideas
What hydraulic oil is reccomended for the toyota skidsteer? Somewhere I read Ford Type F hydraulic oil, that sounds like power steering oil to me.
hi there can one tell me where i can find a shop manel for a 2sdk7
Hydraulic Oil
—————-
There is a recommendation at http://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/Forum/showthread.php?t=12130 (post # 13) to use “Automatic Transmission Fluid – Type F 6.6 Gallons (25L)”, which I believe is what the previous owner has put in mine.
Slow RHS & a bit chatty
———————–
Mine does this on the left, and leaks a bucket load of hydraulic fluid between the frame and the motor mount… I bet the motor seal is blown in mine.. If you are not loosing oil, then perhaps you may try bleeding the air from the hydraulics… service manual has a section on this
Service Manual

For those who have not spotted the link on this page, Garry has posted the repair manual pdf. http://www.z-car.com/SDK8/Toyota_Skid_Steer_sdk6-8_repair_manual.pdf
PS…
If you don’t understand how hydrostatic Transmissions work, check out the info at http://www.hydraulicsupermarket.com/technical9.html
“Hydrostatic transmissions – making sense of case drain flow – Part 1″, 2 & 3
good tips, but anyone got a 3SDK8 with 1DZ toyota engine torque specs.Thanks sam
to all those who have oil leak at their drive or into the final drive ,it will be the drive motor seal. Don’t use after market and don’t split your hydra motor as they are match fitted.Toyota recommend using 20w30 eng oil in the hyd.
Hi Ross
Can you give more detail?
Perfect Machine Fabric leading manufacturer of a slew of Hydraulic Cylinders, Hydraulic Equipments Manufacturers both standards as well as per custom built specification in India.
any info on the backhoe attachment? I have one and the top flange holding the main pin broke off. It’s a rather straight forward welding job, but there are “all sorts” of hydraulic hoses to remove…not sure where to begin…and don’t have a manual…
Here is a website I put together this Spring about my machine. I am still using my machine although I need to replace a linkage for the right arm.
It’s a great machine.

Hello
I’ve just purchased a used 2SDK7 I think. It has the 4cyl 2J engine. Got it cheap but the engine is out and top end disassembled. Head has crack, has anyone sourced cylinder head for this motor or re-powered with other?? Thanks
the 2J engine appeared in forklifts and some ToyoAce vehicles, found the starter and injection pumps are different on these models – Mobil here in NZ have recomended Mobil AgriSuper oil for engine, hydraulics and side transmission area (bung between wheels)
has anyone got a manual on the engine? cant find out how to set the valve clearance and setting up at TDC doesnt work, above manual has the clearance and how to remove engine but thats all
Regarding Hydraulic oil filter, the Napa number above should be 1551, WIX P/N 51551, Donaldson P/N P551551
Bert us know on manual. I’ll look as well
Need to find A cylinder head anyone? Bert no luck on the internet so far as a engine manual?
I have a Toyota sdk8 on ebay at the present time. May be interested in selling the head if it doesn’t sell on ebay. Located in northern Illinois, us.
Gene – if you wreck it I would think you wouldnt have any problem getting rid of spares – second hand parts are hard to find
I need the 2J head cylinder for my sdk 7 some body have one Thank you

If you have a starter problem you can go to a OReilly auto parts and get starter no.16830ult. Then all you haft to do is swap the tail shaft,it works. My coast $109.99.

Thanks ever so much for the PDF Manual and all the other info. I just bought a SDK 7 and will probably need to work on it.
Any one know of where to get parts for the HST pump? Was quoted $425 from Toyota Lift for a genuine seal kit for it, there seems to be very little info out there on the Sundstrand Daikin PV1818AR-N41D pump. Seems like its a rare model of pump.

I have a toyota sdk8 skidsteer 2J and canot find parts. I need a head for it. does anyno where i can get one?
Hello Fellow 2sdk owners. I’ve finally gotten mine up and running, complete engine rebuild and reconditioned head this machine is working well! I found a 2J engine manual off e-bay and it was a great help! I have about 15 hours on machine, overall hour meter shows 2,400. Need to check EDIC and voltage regulator. Machine needs paint and really nothing else. I have some gnarly noise comming from final drive when turning at full speed for slight corner. Maybe Chains n sprockets? If anyone needs any spec or copy of the 2J engine section I’ll help you out! Good luck

Cheers

Did you ever get your starter issue resolved? I was wondering if it was the over-running clutch in the starter or worn teeth on your flywheel ring gear? My SDK8 just started acting up the same way, but more so when it’s very cold like under 25 degrees (F). Tomorrow we have a heat wave (40 + degrees (F)) and I will attempt to check it out.
hello everyone. im just jumping in on the forum to let all know im a owner of a 1989 2sdk8. it has been a vital part of my property maintnence and renovation. if possible i can let some know of any problems i have encountered when reading the posts. ill get some pics on here in the future. have a great day!

Hi thanks for the helpful info on these skid steers. One question. Do you know if thes skid steers cam out with a certain manufactures bucket. Or could they be anyones. As I have a SDK8 with a leaking 4 in 1 bucket cylinder and can’t find any serial numbers on it and need some parts pictures. Any info would be awsome thanks.
