Hi,
I got an old W4 earlier this fall for scrap price. It's in horrible shape from it's life in a fertilizer warehouse. I'm patching the radiator now, would rather replace, but being laid off put the crimp on how much I can do right now. I drove around some and used to push some tree tops around, it will really pull a lot too, more than I thought it would. I guess it should at 6000 lbs. It has the weight kit on the back.
Anyways, just wondering if anyone knows of good online source of info such as manual pages in pdf. I found the online CASE parts book and that gives nice exploded views, but I don't have any way to cross the CASE part numbers with anything else.
trying to get parts through case dealer is terribly expensive and difficult. It needs new hubs because most of the studs spin. The axles look like regular Dana 60s, so I am hoping they are standard outers from 3/4 or 1 ton truck, but I haven't seen any that match correctly. Even if I could cross the CASE pns for the inner and outer bearings to SKF of Timken or something that would be a start.
I've had trouble finding info about the engine. I know it's a Mitsubishi from what's left of the tag.
Anyways, just a quest for info on the W4 so feel free to add any info or experience you might have.
Thank you,
Ben
