I have a CL40 and have had it for a number of years. My is supposed to be about 1980! The hydraulic system is seperate ad it is hydrostaic which is better than mechanical drive. Mine was apparently made by the Erickson corporation that was best known for fork lifts. I have not had many problems with it. From what I can tell it is a totally off the shelf assembled machine. I can't see any parts except the axles maybe that were made for the machine. are I replaced the control joints and Mcmaster has the exact exact items. It is a very well designed loader even by today's design. On mine you can see the cutting edge which makes final grading a easy job. It also has a 1500 pound capacity which a modest lifting capacity with all the counter weights which is good even today considering some new machines have problems with maximum weights. My machine had universal hydraulic oil in the hydraulics which is a close to motor oil as you will get. Manuals are available on this site. Ford industrial engines has all the engine parts. Have fun.
