    Case 580 3 point hitch

    They probably did offer it on the 480D. They offered it on the 580C as well as many other models I imagine. My question is, what other models does the one that fits mine fit? Hammertime, All 580C models can run either a backhoe or three point or nothing. Take of two big a$$ nuts and the...

    Case 580 3 point hitch

    I've got a '79 580C. Could anyone tell me if a 3pt subframe and hitch from other machines will fit mine? It might help me in my search for one of these. Thanks.

    Would this work?

    I've been giving this further thought. Will the hoses and cylinders on the plow handle the pressures the tractor is putting out? I doubt it. My hydraulics are more than 3000 psi, plows are less than 2000. And obviously ALL the fluid would have to be flushed out first. Most plow pumps have...

    Of course. Thanks very much.

    Would this work?

    This is my first backhoe so forgive me if that was a newbie question. So I should be looking for two T's with the coupling on it?

    Would this work?

    Have a Case 580C with 4-in-1 bucket. I'd like to add quick couplings off the circuit that opens the clam shell part of the bucket. I'm considering mounting a snow plow on the bucket and would like to control the plow angle by the left/right bucket control. Has anyone done something similar...

    580 C steering issues

    Last week finally got a chance to go through our machine and try to fix the steering which is the original point of this post. Put a brand new steering cylinder that came with the machine on one side and one that I rebuilt on the other side. Also changed the filter in the steering reservoir...

    580 C steering issues

    Thanks nova. I was just reading that thread last night. Found it in a search for my problem.

    580 C steering issues

    Ok, I'll try that and I will also change the filter in the pump.

    580 C steering issues

    Not normally. When the rock was slung up and I tried to turn the wheel it sounded like it was straining but didn't turn and I didn't force it. Another issue the tractor has is the steering wanders quite a bit even at first gear speeds. I'm constantly correcting to keep it straight.

    580 C steering issues

    The steering does stopp both ways and the fluid is full.
