    Case 9040B cab

    I’ve got a very smashed cab on my 9040B. I’m looking for a replacement or a parts machine with a good cab. Do any other models like a 9010B or a 9060B have the same cab? I’ve been told Kobelco and Hitachi are basically the same machine from that time period. If that’s true I’d get one off one of...

    Bought another grader 12G

    Picked up this nice old machine. Couple small leaks and some shims and tires. Also will need the front scarifier. Is there any good junk yards for these? Shims from Cat only or is there aftermarket parts dealers for these? Thanks

    JD 570 trans

    I have a 570 that when I shift into 8th gear it kind of sits half in/out then sluggishly goes into 8th fully. I changed the filters and topped off the oil. I also am wondering if these machines normally can’t hardly pull their weight in road gear let alone up a grade? There’s not any extra power...

    Jd 570 trans oil

    I want to change the filters in the transmission. What oil do I tip it off with? Can I use regular Hyken 052? Or is it best to use the John Deere hyd/trans oil? Also does all of the oil come out wheeler replacing the filters? Thanks

    Bought a JD 570

    Just bought a 570. Have never ran a Deere this old. How do you shift the saddle? Could possibly be a floor button on the right hand side of the floor. Is there any weak points I need to know about? Found a crack in circle frame.

    Galion 503 series L Clutch

    I think my clutch is going out. I’m going to try and get some more life out of it with adjusting. Can anyone tell me what is the best way to get the clutch out? It looks like it is a pain either way, pulling engine or dropping trans/ finals. What’s easiest in every ones experience? Thanks for...

    Rigid frame to articulated

    So I got my water in oil problem remedied on my Galion 503. I've been running it a little here and there and sometimes it would be nice to have the option to articulate a little. Problem of course this is a rigid frame machine. Thought maybe adding a joint just in front of the cab would do the...

    Galion 503 L Again

    Does anyone know if there were side shields that covered the engine? Mine looks like there are some things that would/could hold a panel. If so did they have slots to allow air flow? Thanks you for any information. it would really clean up the looks of the old girl.

    Galion 503 series L

    Hello I'm new to this forum. I Just bought a 503 galion and am wondering if there are front scarifier mounts or something for a dozer blade or snow plow for these small graders? There's a flat plate with holes on the front. Does anyone know of a setup laying around in a scrap yard somewhere or a...
