A 1991 John Deere 544E rough-terrain forklift, 9,462 hours, diesel 6-cylinder, runs on jump start but needs a steering hydraulic leak sealed and fork spreader repair. Heavy-equipment rebuilders and parts dealers target these for resale or component salvage. Have a mobile mechanic inspect the hydraulic leak location (steering column seals are often cheap to replace) and assess whether the spreader is a minor linkage fix or major actuator replacement.
Estimated flip margin and comp range available with Pro. Summary may occasionally contain inaccuracies; check the full description before bidding.
