Bobcat 970

Parts Compatible with the Bobcat 970 Skid Steer Loader

The 970 belongs to Bobcat's early heavy class, machines built when the company was proving skid steers could do loader-scale work. Its serial structure is unusual: 4964MA100000 through 109999, then 4964MA110000 and above, a six-digit sequence within a single MA prefix, so the full string down to its length matters when matching a listing.

The heavy 900-family shares its service hardware internally, and the 970's catalog reflects what keeps a big early diesel working rather than model-exclusive components.

Common Replacement Parts for the Bobcat 970

Fuel service leads: the in-line fuel filter replacing OEM 3885315 is the recurring order, supported by both clamp sizes, the size 5 replacing OEM 42H32 and the larger replacing OEM 42H64, across its bigger plumbing. Grease fittings replacing OEM 10H25 feed the heavy pivots, and the 17C-series bolts restock original-size hardware.

The parts manual anchors any work on a 970. Match by its numbers, and our team can help interpret the six-digit MA sequences against your plate.
