    Backhoe theft...kind of

    I think it's been plenty long enough for the statute of limitations to have run out, so here's a little story... Many years ago, waaay back before the turn of the millenium.

    NOBODY has a shop manual for a '65 Case 530 CK with the 188 diesel? Been a month, got the ebay one on disk-less than I'd hoped for, sadly...the exploded parts diagrams at Coleman Equipment have been pretty helpful, but the step-by-step of a shop manual would be handy for this ol' guy with...

    cordless impacts?

    Dang, I know you boys all use more grunt on heavy equipment than I'm used to needing to work on DIY home improvement projects and the family cars/trucks. I bought into the Ryobi [laugh if you must] tool family awhile back and now my Makitas collect dust. I just picked up the cordless 1/4"...

    TLB newbie in NW Montana with new-to-me Case 530 CK TLB

    Hello- Just bought this old hunk of iron and need to get it into functional shape so I can move some dirt before winter. I'm a semi-retired RN 63 years young and know NOTHING about diesels, not much more than nothing about tractors. Have a whole lotta tools and figured I'd best be putting...
