I spent 4300 on this tractor, 1964 case 530 ck and beginning to feel i might have wasted money. I am no farmer own my own business and I bought this for it to be my first back hoe. it did not leak when i looked at it upon getting it home what a nightmare.
1) the g1411 torque tub is leaking fluid from what appears to be mounting holes on the bottom of the case. there is 6 holes and the 2 holes that are leaking i can put my screw drive all the way into transmission the other are solid and dry. i asked a parts guy who had one on shelf in pa he told me that the holes are not supposed to be all the way through. My question anyone else run into this? is so seeing the holes are threaded would a bolt seal it back up?
2) seems to be leaking oil from pan or torque converter not sure just black spot and back of pan and bottom of bell-housing wet
3) hydro fluid leaking from front pump area
4) back hoe needs new say bushing and pin for left hand side it has lot of play and lift piston up and down by hand
5) back hoes valve body is leaking as well everything moves nice except main boom that is jerky but that valve is like poring fluid out
6) the 4 speed gear case has an 1" of gear oil in it not on dip stick at all.
7) tries are dry rotted.
so any ideas or help on parts thoughts would be grate. the engine is gas and it seems as though he did rebuild that it has plenty of power he said he replaced the pinion gears....but low gear oil>>> well eh it drove fine about 30 mph i parked it checked in morning found all this then
again i am new at this i have never owned a machine like this so i need some sound advice on my next best move ....sell or fix and if fix some ideas on how to get parts and cheap modernization's
