I have a Case 580CK that I am getting going again. I bought it off of an older guy who lost interest in completing this project. I bought not in running condition, but the head had been completely rebuilt. After just having the fuel pump rebuilt and replacing the injectors, I crossed one of the biggest hurdles - the engine now runs fine. The loader and the backhoe seem to work fine with only minor issues. The biggest problems I now have are the transmission and steering. Neither seem to work. I even lifted the tires off the ground, and still nothing when I put it into gear. This machine has a power shuttle. I checked the fluid level in the transmission right near the shifter, and that seems to be right up to the line. What else should I try now? Replace the shuttle filter in front of the radiator? Something else? The steering also doesn't work. It had what appears to be red transmission fluid in it, and someone accidently put a little bit of hydrolic tractor fluid in it. We cracked the lines at the pump, and at the steering pistons, and there little to no fluid coming out. Is the steering pump gone? These are the last two major items I have to get resolved. Everything else is minor stuff. Thanks for any and all suggestions.

I also have a 580CK Diesel with Power Shuttle (PS). Mine was getting slower & slower, over the years, to build enough converter pressure to move the tractor forward or backward, especially during cold weather. Cured the problem by replacing the $3 pressure relief spring in the regulator and cleaning a dirty pump pickup tube screen + replacing the filter. The screen is very small and plugs quickly. Bad newes is you must split the tractor to get at the screen. Turned out to be alot of 'fun' work but I also replaced the forward & reverse "clutch packs" all seals, bearings, ect since it was accessable. Functions like a new tractor now > with this new lease on its old life. Now it's excellent for loader operations.

Thanks for the reply. I'm going to take it one step at a time, and try all the easiest stuff first before I try the "fun" part with splitting the tractor.
