I have a case 580ck that developed a knock that came on quick. I cut the machine and started to dissect it before i made it worse. After battling the crap out of the stearing frame to get it out of the way, i finally one the battle and dropped the pan. The head came off super easy, but the stuck bolts on the a frame under the pan were not fun to get out. Each bolt took forever. I one the battle and the pan is off. i can see the damage but am not sure what to do about it. The number three connecting rod is loose and has a ton of play at the crank. I can move it around and believe that is the source of the issue. However i cant tell if the connecting rod is worn or the crank is worn. Everything looks smooth and not scored but it is lose as can be. I guess that explains why it ran fine with no smoke or anything, just developed a knock super quick. Head is fine, pistons and sleeves are unscored. It is a 188d. I have hawked this forum for years but never posted anything. I am just seeking some advise from somoene out there that has more knowledge of these case 188's than me. Any advise would be appreciated. My inclintion is to replace the connecting rod with a new one and see. Seams that would be the easiest thing to do, as i have not split the tractor, because i was unsure of the issue. If i have to pull the crank does the motor have to be seperated to get it out? Advise from the infinate wisdom of this list would be appreciated.
