Bobcat 742

Parts Compatible with the Bobcat 742 Skid Steer Loader

The 742 sat between the 642 and 743 in Bobcat's classic lineup and shared most of its running gear with the 743, which is why so many listings here cover both machines. Parts references for the 742 cite serial ranges such as 507423001 and above and 509418001 and above, and the serial plate settles which listing applies when a part changed mid-production.

Because the 742 and 743 differ mainly in engine fit, chassis and pivot hardware interchange freely while engine-side parts do not, so check the application list on engine-adjacent components rather than assuming 743 coverage carries over.
