I'm looking at buying a case 580 construction king. I guess it would be in the 1960's It is a diesel and knocking pretty bad. Maybe the crank? I would like to know if parts are still avaiable? Would any one know what motor the diesel would be?

Yes, most parts are available. But some are only available at Case Industrial/Construction Dealers. Case also made an Ag version of the 580 and some parts are common with the CK (Construction King). Those parts can be ordered by an Ag Dealer.

The engine is the 188 cubes, Four cylinder, non-turbo. Quite a reliable engine. Ours starts good in the winter and has not needed anything except fuel filters for the 28 years we've had it. But the machine is a hydraulic wonder and seems the cylinder seals don't last very long. We need to repair a couple of cylinder nearly every year.

Does the one your looking at have the Power Shuttle (Reverser)? Personally, I judge that option to be mandatory for a loader/backhoe tractor.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the Power Shuttle feature includes a Torque Converter drive... not a conventional Friction Clutch. So the shuttle is not only quick and convenient to operate but the Torque Converter cushions the impact on the entire powertrain when you push hard (and fast) into a pile of dirt with the loader. This save busting; gears, clutches, shafts, etc. Much more reliable for normal usage of a loader/backhoe.

Thanks for the info jim. It did have the shuttle. To my dismay he sold it to a guy who was there before me for $1400-. This guy had first option on it, so I'm out of luck.
