    Case 350B shuttle/hydro leaks

    1. I parked my 350B when I finished my house a couple months ago. Today I started it up and it barely crawled forward. Reverse is fine, but after about 10 feet it stopped forward completely. Charge pressure gauge works and was reading low. Anything to check first. 2. I have a spool valve...

    10 ply or 14 ply for skid/dozer trailer

    I haul my 1845c and 350B dozer on a tandem heavy trailer. Most of the tires are straight unreliable. Should I be looking at 10 ply or 14 ply tires? the biggest load is the 350B and it weighs around 10k. Thanks!

    580k for sale, no brakes

    Local town has a 2wd extend a hoe 580K for bid at 3500 hours. Has a cab too, doesn't look really beat on. The mayor said it needs brakes, but a city employee told me he thinks it just a brake line. Its a closed bid that starts at 3k, and I'll add a picture later on. I was thinking of offering...

    No water past meter

    Water is going through the meter, but stopping somewhere in between the outlet of the meter and the copper connection. That's why I think it might be that check valve right after the meter.

    No water past meter

    May not be the right section, but I thought I would run this by you guys. Just finished new house, ran pex all the way to the meter where a previous copper line was coming out. Cleaned it off, cut it and spliced on the pex line. Just had water meter installed in meter box, turned on. Nothing, No...

    Best Way to Compact without a Compactor?

    I was wanting to really pack down the dirt, before I poured my driveway. I have a 580B and 350B dozer. I thought driving over it with the backhoe would be best? What do you think?

    580 B slips out of gear often

    Your shift fork probably isnt lined up right. When I bought my 580B, the fork had broke off and I brazed it back on. I dont think its in the proper place and now 1st slips out. if you google it, there should be other threads discussing the issue. shifter shouldnt take 30 minutes to pull.

    case 350B steering improvement?

    I got the dozer back from case, they did me right. I have been cutting out a drive in the woods, and forgot how hard this thing steers. You really have to pull those levers to make it think about turning. I have mineral gear oil in it now, and the bands looked healthy. Would a different band...

    350b->550g?

    The first one is before I got the decals on. the salesman said they are trying to sell the 550G for a customer. So, I doubt they would take a trade. Asking 30 but would take good offer. I thought it was alot older from the road. 97 with 3600 hours. However, I dont see the need to throw out...

    350b->550g?

    So I took the whole dozer back down to the dealer today, and look at their used for sale lot. It had one case 550G dozer and it looked in average shape. undercarriage wasnt the best, but I think its two more tons and two more cylinders. I know this 350B is going to take some negotiating, and I...

    So you may remember when I posted how my 350B wouldn't come out of first, and wont go in 2nd or 3rd. I took the transaxle to the local case dealer to get rebuilt, and they did it. But Now I see the problem... The first gear on the input shaft has a flat side and a protruding side. The protruding...
