I just acquired a Case W36 from a Gov'mt agency and wondered if anyone has experience with this model machine. What are the weak points?
Did you find any info on this? I'm looking at buying one with a potentially shot transmission. It won't spin the tires when pushing into a pile but it will move itself around.I just acquired a Case W36 from a Gov'mt agency and wondered if anyone has experience with this model machine.

The W36 is a pretty good machine the weakest point that I remember was the torque converter and seal. They were bad to leak and hard to repair. What engine is in your loader?I just acquired a Case W36 from a Gov'mt agency and wondered if anyone has experience with this model machine. What are the weak points?
How does the engine run, what engine is in this loader? Have you checked oil level and type, if I remember correctly those were Allison trannys and used Dexron trans oil. Might be a good idea to check pressures also.Did you find any info on this? I'm looking at buying one with a potentially shot transmission.

Some photos would be nice if you can. Take photo of serial number plate (should be in cab) of machine, engine and transmission.
That's the one! The dimensions tag was on the outside of the cab on the driver's side (USA) and it was rubbed clean off the metal panel. I couldn't find the transmission tag. There was so much oil around it from the steering sector leaking I thinkWhere was this plate located? The VIN tag should be on right hand side of instrument panel.
