My last hurdle to overcome is the steering. My internet searches have revealed the case 930 and all ather ck's are somewhat notorious for poor steering systems. Mine has the power steering integrated into the steering box mounted in the center of the tractor in the lower cast iron nose piece. Almost any movement of the steering wheel from center @ low speeds or stationary causes the belt to squeal, regardless of engine speed. Closer inspection revealed belt misalignment, which i repaired and a worn belt which i replaced. Both inner tie rod ends were worn so i bushed them and changed to new bolts as they were worn also. I"m still having the same issue with the squeling belt. The tractor does have a loader and bucket on it. The problem is present with an empty bucket. I"m readty for some suggestions on this one.

What method is everyone using to measure the pulleys for wear? [Reply]  [No Email]

I know this will sound a little over simple but make sure your power steering pump is full of oil. Change the filter in the pump. You could have a plugged filter causing part of your problems I now use High Tran Ultra in mine. Some use type A transmission fluid [Reply]  [No Email]

They have very fine needle bearings in them, and if the cages get worn the needles can get croked in the bore and act like a sprague clutch, causing very hard steering. I have the front end off a 930 now that I can just barely turn with a long bar. I don't think the former owner thought much of greese guns either. Loren [Reply]  [No Email]

I keep seeing jobs i need to do with it , so the blade stays ready for service ..we keep everything well greased and use belt dressing on the belt ,, that helps a lot ,I will swap to a cogged belt if this 930 gets more frequent use ,But for now it worx ok other than that annoying SQEEK,the JD and IHC, Ollie,,ALLIS Folx LOVE to SNIKER about that sqeek soundin off ...! This is another Early Problem that CASE IGNORED ... CASE REALLY SHOULD HAD Double Belted those Steering pumps ,CLEARLY SOMETHING quickly SHOULD HAD BEEN DONE TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM , Case made good Tractors ,, the Motors were the Best thing about them,, Unfotunatly the Upper Level CLAUSEN CURSE born in the 30s, of Arrogant Mismanagement and problem denial continued to erode Case's Market share ,, even though Clausen was long gone by the 1960s ,, hisc" I AM KING " poor management style continued til CASE was swallowed by Tenneco [Reply]  [No Email]

I just replaced the belt on my 930 with a cog style belt witch I learned from a post by adirondack case guy a couple of weeks ago thanks acg by the way that tractor is like a totally new tractor. This tractor has no loader but now I can turn it lock to lock at an idle sitting still with no squeal and its real smooth. Fought that sucker for years, I tried tightening it and so forth and just thought thats the way it is. The old belt didnt look too bad but was glossy and pretty skinny compared to the new one.

Good Tractor's. They were basically like that when new. Especially when not moving or at a low idle. When at medium throttle or moving mine worked fine. A loader will make it a lot worse, just have to keep it revved up a little. [Reply]  [No Email]
