I have a Case 580CK (with power shuttle) and am having an issue with the left wheel locking up. It was an intermittent problem that now has the machine not able to move in either direction.
The right wheel will turn and will push the tractor in a circle, but I can't get the left one to move. I took apart the left brake and tried to get it to move without the pads installed. No luck.
When the problem was intermittent, I could usually get the wheel to unlock by reversing direction. You would hear a "clunk" and the wheel would start to move.
It sounds like it is a mechanical issue (like there is a gear that is catching) to me.
Has anyone had this issue or have any ideas on where to start with the troubleshooting?
Thanks in advance!
