    Case 580CK Manual Shuttle and trans fluid?

    I have a Case 580CK (1969 vintage), with the manual shuttle (have to push in clutch to switch from forward to reverse), I finally got around to checking the levels and found that the forward transmission housing (I think it's the one that holds the forward/reverse/high/low) is low. The back part...

    Touchup paint for 66 Case 580CK

    I'll definitely use them for repainting the entire thing when I get to that point, but the $30 "batch fee" kinda kills the deal there.

    Touchup paint for 66 Case 580CK

    I have an old Case 580CK backhoe that I've recently acquired, it's been beat up over the years and needs some work. Right now I'm building a cover for the battery box so I'm not stepping on the battery every time I get into the thing. Does anyone know some close rattle-can paints for it? There...

    Got a backhoe (Case 580CK) and a skidsteer (Bobcat 7753), now to build a homestead! :D

    For straight digging I have a bobcat with a toothed bucket, so I'm good there, I'll mainly be using the 580CK for the backhoe function, so the forward being iffy isn't too bad, just have to watch it loading on the trailer. Yah, if I was digging through scrith I'd be reconsidering the whole...

    Ok, so I don't have a shuttle shift, if I try to put in forward or reverse without hitting the clutch it'll grind. Thanks for the info!

    Bobcat 7753 aftermarket 2-button aux control?

    I have a 7753 that is a bit old and worn out, been working on fixing various issues while making use of it (love it, quite capable little beast). I just picked up a grapple bucket and making great use of it, until the controls died. I pulled the sticks and on both sides the switches are bad...

    Got a backhoe (Case 580CK) and a skidsteer (Bobcat 7753), now to build a homestead! :D

    What exactly is the 'shuttle shift'? I've heard it mentioned several times but don't know exactly what it does and how it's different than a non-shuttle-shift. The system I have has 3 different levers, on the column there is a forward/reverse lever (forward will pop out in the most inconvenient...

    Got a backhoe (Case 580CK) and a skidsteer (Bobcat 7753), now to build a homestead! :D

    Hey all! Just introducing myself to the forum. I recently purchased a 580 CK Backhoe, I think it's a 66' going by the serial (8299991). After replacing the choke cable this thing is starting like a champ even in below freezing weather. It has a few issues to figure out though: Power steering...
