We are haveing a pretty hot dispute on another forum on another site about Case vs minni moline. The subject of axle diameter came up my 930 chain drive has 3 1/4 diam axles and I was told that the G series molines are 3 1/2 between bearings. My main question is this, Aren't the Case axle's made of just as high of grade of steel as the molines? I cannot imagine Case using nothing less than the very best. I need to talk to some fellow CASE guys as I am getting little support on that other forum. Thanks, R Wyler.

In our county many 930's broke axles. Actualy they never broke they crystalized at the back side of the keyway. My 1966 930 has 8500 hrs and I haven't lost a axle. I never heard of a minnie breaking axles in our country.

Yes Jim I recall hearing about those axles breaking and that puzzle's me that those Case chain drive axle's would do that. R Wyler

My personal opinion about the crystaliaziation of the axles goes between a steady rpm that set off a certian vibration or the tire lugs of some tires that did the same. Also some put duals on these 930's and almost everyone that did lost axles. I know that I can't run my 930 at some rpm's because I don't like the engine or trans viberation. I know some will run at recommened rpm's no matter how tractor runs. Sometimes a little faster or slower than reccommened rpm's is smoother.

Jim that is an interesting thing to think about. And very true.I need to pay attention and see if I notice vibration with my 930 at different RPMs. R Wyler

I am not a expert on the subject but I have heard
of folks breaking axle's on the 930.

Case built the Chain drive for the L, used it in the D, then the 500, 900, and 930. buy the time it got to the 930 they were at its upper range...

But there are many case 930's still going strong.

I know nothing about the M&M.

Yes cb that design was in many models and even in the 930 comfort kings it is as tough as ever simple proof of how tough they are. R Wyler.

Yes the are tough but they can be broke. A 930 with a broke axle is not cute on the highway with loaded wagons on the back...

Well I knew that there had been some negative effects from advertiseing any thing of that nature on here just like advertiseing chat rooms so I just do not do that anymore. R Wyler
