    looking to get a second opinion on some issues with this unit. came in with hydraulics dead, engine starts and runs good - found no pilot pressure cleaned and inspected sub control valve and pilot solenoid and all looked good there so reassembled. at idle still no pilot pressure but at full...

    2010 IHI cl35 came to me with right track locked, loader functions as it should and left track moves properly. park brake light goes off with seat bar. right track will move about 1/2 in between forward and rev but thats all. wondering if anyone has worked on these units before and has any...

    acme diesel generator

    both great points, I think my initial test to power field was done incorrectly as I powered 12vDC directly to one of the 120v outlets while running and this caused the alternator to try to motor. I pulled the end cover off yesterday and put 12vDC to the main capacitor and it started generating...

    acme diesel generator

    had this old generator given to me, got the engine running (seized plungers in injection pumps) but can't seem to make it generate any power. its a Chicago electric 1665 10kw alternator. when fielded the unit will make short bursts of power but when full fielded the engine stalls. I don't know...

    Kubota l35 GST shuttle noise

    Picked up a 02 l35 Kubota recently and noticed that when you move the shuttle lever to fwd or rev there is a slight chirp as the clutch pack engages? no delays in shifting or any other issues with the trans just seems like an odd noise for a wet clutch to make upon engagment. will do it more...

    Case/carraro hub bearing preload

    No not at the trunnions but where the hub/planetary assembly meets the swivel housing where the kingpins are, there are two bearings separated by a single spacer (about 3 inches long) that sets preload when axle nut is tightened, not sure if shims can be added to this spacer to increase preload...

    Case/carraro hub bearing preload

    I'm just finishing up rebuilding the front axle on a case 580e (early design with 4 bolt kingpins) After assembling left front hub with new bearings there is still some play between the hub and swivel housing not much but its there. Is there any way to adjust preload on the hub bearings...

    Case 580e spindle nut removal

    I actually found a used socket that a dealer had, these front axles sure ain't cheap (or easy) to work on though ended up making a puller for the kingpins and I think case listed yet another specialty tool for the diff

    Case 580e spindle nut removal

    checking to see if anyone may have any tips for removing the spindle nut in the front axle hub (early axle 4 bolt kingpin) it's a six prong nut that is supposedly torqued to 850 foot pounds and requires a special socket that case wants 560$ for! I may be able to find a 4x4 truck socket that fits...

    Case 580se shuttle/torque converter

    thanks alrman, I was thinking about that as well when going together as the manual didn't say anything about thickness. so I used the thicker of the two which is what I removed but will try the thinner one and see if it frees up any

    Case 580se shuttle/torque converter

    I am just finishing rebuilding the shuttle now and everything was going together well until I bolted the front cover on with the 4 ferry head screws, as I torqued them down to spec and compressed the springs the input shaft and tailshaft became hard to turn. I can still turn the yoke by hand...

    85 mack r686 surging

    it wanders a bit at idle but not bad. things get crazy when I get to dirt/rough roads then the throttle is basically uncontrollable in any gear. I checked IP lever again no grooves caused by the spring and very little left to right slack. I will check motor mounts cab is air ride. might try...

    85 mack r686 surging

    would I be a able to pull and inspect the governor assembly for wear without having to recalibrate the pump? or is it kind of all or nothing once its apart? Id like to be able to inspect the flyweights first to rule them out if possible... thanks for all the advise- very helpful!

    Case 580se shuttle/torque converter

    interesting, Billrog- how did you determine that the problem was in the pump or converter and not the forward clutch discs separating or worn?

    85 mack r686 surging

    85 r686 is surging at lower rpm between 1000-1200 is the worst. smooths out ok above that but very annoying driving around the yard when almost any throttle will start a surging/bucking show. throttle linkage is tight and return spring on pump is intact. I seem to remember a service bulletin...
