    Case forks top rod

    I've seen forks without the bar. I figure someone had to cut it to get it off the bucket. I like the support part but 1144 is a poor choice if welding caps on the end. It will go with more hooks. It sound like the rod is 2".

    Used 16" bucket for Case 580C

    I have a 275 TIG (does arc welding too) and the compressor but my plan is to use a plasma torch that has a setting for this. If you ever get a chance to run a plasma torch you will never go back to carbon arc gouging. To put the new back on, I grind to clean metal. Tack in place using the...

    Used 16" bucket for Case 580C

    I pick up a 16" no teeth bucket for my 580. It looks like it has had a couple of cutting edges welded on over the years. The rest of the bucket is in good shape. My plan is to cut of the three layers of cutting blades. Right now the leading edge of the cutting edge is 2 inches. I haven got...

    580 Buckets

    Yup. Looking for what fits on what. I keep finding buckets but I don't know if they'll work. To add to it when I ask the person selling the measurements are always not what I need to know. They may even know what it came off of.

    580 Buckets

    Is there a list of what buckets fit what model of 580? Or is there a spec sheet for them to make it easy when shopping? Like a bolt pattern checker for Chevy wheels? i.e. will a 580C fit a 580K?

    I put a normal 12 volt in mine. Drilled two holes on each side of it. All thread up to a flat 3/4 wide across the top to hold it in place. You can get to the brakes from below. Pulling the floor will make it easer for old guys like me to have someone above help lift the brake cover. When...
