Well, I am now feeling very defeated with this machine. Any help would be awesome. I have owned this thing for 5 years and it paid for itself 10 times over. I am mechanically inclined, but have ventured into uncharted territories. I have never had that many issues with this machine but when it rains it pours. I have successfully pulled the clutches and rebuilt them. Then I spun a bearing two days later. I pulled the engine pulled it apart and did the big one. Sleeves, pistons, new rod and all engine bearings and seals. After minor troubleshooting hit her to firs back up after I wrestled the engine back in. Patted myself on the back and put it to work. Pulled and dug 20 fence posts, and cleaned and treated my pasture. Machine runs like new and has 190 ish psi on the shuttle clutch pressure. I go out today and pull up an enormous stump, and awesome, it comes out in ten minutes. Everything feels amazing. After all the clutch problems and engine troubles, it's amazing it even runs well like this, I am happy. And then, just stops. I'm in first gear moving machine, shift to second, driving along and wan just stops abruptly. I was in the street moving to back of property and cars were starting to get pissy. I put it in neutral and used the hoe to push me to the side of the road. I now have no clue what to do. Machine runs fine, has proper clutch pressure but does not move. What I did:
1. Pulled clutch cover off and inspected clutches. I can see forward and reverse engage and disengage when I move shuttle lever. I also have proper clutch pressure.
2. Lifted myself off ground stuck it in forward and reverse no rotation while in gear.
3. Take it out of gear and can spin tires, but they spin in opposite directions.(diff)
3. Put it in gear and tried to push myself with bucket, I just drag both tires forward and reverse.
It seems like something is stuck in the tranny or diff. Everything I did to the machine works great. From tranny to the front everything has been gone through, cleaned and painted. I never have taken apart the tranny/diff just changed fluid. The fluid is new and correct on dipstick.
I know someone out here can point me in the right direction. Please advise. I will be eternally grateful.
Specs to help out
580ck
Shuttle shift
Why everything works except movement sounds like a broken planetary gear or pinion gear of some sort. It looks fairly accessible from the top side. I'm going to pull seat and top cover and look in there, what should I see?
