Hey all. I know it isn't orange but it's close. I've picked up a new toy for a good price that needs work. It has the G188D diesel with the 4 speed power shuttle transmission. It came with a front loader that doesn't leak and a backhoe that leaks like a sieve. It also came with an oil leak directly into the #1 cylinder exhaust, and a leaking injection pump. The brakes have also appeared to have retired and left the country. My work is cut out for me, but in the end, it will more than satisfy my needs around the property once I get it patched up.
The biggest issues I'm running into with this thing is finding parts. Trying to go through the dealer and many items that should be easy to find (i.e. head gasket, valve stem seals) are discontinued. The 'aftermarket' is lacking at best from what I've been able to locate. These tractors came with 3 different transmission options and 2 engine options. If any of you here have a reputable Case Industrial parts dealers (online and shipping preferred), let me know. I checked with Messicks, but they're only Case Agriculture.
