    Case 1845c Skid Steer Ripoff?

    I recently bought an 1845c at auction based on video, pictures and it's reputation as being "bulletproof". The seller disclosed a hydraulic leak, but claimed unit was operating properly. (I did notice after the fact, that in the video demo the driver only made left turns). Well it turns out...

    Case 1840 right side half speed in forward only.

    This is my first post so let me know if this is in the wrong place. I just picked up a case 1840 with around 1400 hours. Everything seems to work how it should other than the right side moves significantly slower than the left in forwards only. In reverse everything seems to work how it should...

    Case 580k won't start without ether after sitting over 24 hours

    I just recently bought a 87 case 580k with the 4bt cummins non-turbo, and when it sits for more than 24 hours it has trouble starting. I believe it is getting air in the fuel system. I have changed the fuel level sensor(it didn't work before), so it has plenty of fuel and the fuel looks good, no...

    New Owner of Case CX135SR Excavator

    I bought a used 2006 CX135SR. I am wanting to do a full service on it. I found service manuals but parts are another matter. All the part numbers for filters are listed on the excavator but finding places online that have the parts are difficult. At least for me. It isn't like looking up...

    Pto wood chipper on a case 580c

    Hey folks, I have a Case 580C with the 3 point and hydraulic pto, I need to know if hooking up a 3 pt wood chipper directly is ok or will it break a shear pin or pto with the hydraulic pto?? I don't have much space to put a slipper clutch in if needed, I'm checking if anyone runs a chipper...

    Help to identify my Skid Steer

    I recently bought an old Skid steer to use on my acreage. It works well enough and the price was right. But I'd like to know what it is. I have scoured the internet and I "think" it is a Massey Ferguson? But I have no idea. And it's not exactly like the pictures I found online. Can anyone...

    Shuttle linkage Case 580C

    A while back I rebuilt my shuttle transmission and I think I have the linkage wrong somehow. Now somehow it wouldn't go into reverse. I played with it and if I rotated the solenoid the rest of the way it would lock over center in reverse. I shorten one rod and lengthen the other. Looking...

    Case 580C 3rd and 4th gear

    I rebuilt the Shuttle Transmission and was expecting better out of 3rd and 4th gear. In 1st or 2nd it will climb a steep hill with a load but in 3rd or 4th it will it will barely get rolling... Is that normal for 3rd and 4th? I have to drive this about 7 miles (road mostly) and really don't...

    Case 9050 crank no start

    We just bought a 1996 case 9050b with an m11 Cummins, it was running great and out of nowhere it idled down and just died. We found out one of the batteries was junk so we replaced it and now it will crank but no fire. There’s no smoke when it’s cranking so we changed fuel filter and it fired up...

    Who tunes Case skidders?

    I'm looking to upgrade a case 310 with a larger fuel pump and a tune to get more power. As I understand you can put the 340s fuel pump on it and achieve the same power level. Has anyone done this or know of shops that do it or where to go?
