    Case 580c Loader lift cylinder sizes

    If I could get the 3" rod cyl at a reasonable price I would do it. If you are not lifting heavy, probably wouldn't make any diff.

    Case 580C suggestions to get pins out of steering column

    Glad you can report "leak free" after all that. I never had a problem pushing those pins out and I've done it a few times............but those pins would have 50 more years on 'em now.

    Case 450C Blade Control Spool Valves Weeping

    Looks like you are keeping it clean where the spools are exposed. Dirt and oil make a grinding compound and will damage the exposed part of the spool as it moves in & out.

    Case 850E

    Pretty sure pilot pressure is what's used to release the brakes. 250 ish P.S.I. should do.

    Case 580 Super E Brakes

    You can replace the seal with the housing bolted back on the machine. It helps if you have the tool that covers the splines. I have used shin stock wrapped around the splines in a pinch. I would look on Ebay for a service manual.

    Case 580C suggestions to get pins out of steering column

    Soak in penetrating oil maybe. You are right, they usually push right out.

    1974 Case 580B Hydraulic Power to Backhoe

    I bet you need to replace the o-rings on the load check valves in the backhoe control valve.

    1974 Case 580B Hydraulic Power to Backhoe

    Takes more HP to overcome the lock check valve when retracting or raising the stabilizers.

    Where to get Brake parts

    You could manual adjust each brake and then put a lock nut on the top of the toothed gear. I never thought the auto adjusters worked very well as the aged.
