Grrrrr! I checked McMaster-Carr but couldn't find anything other than fairly generic pulleys....but then I didn't spend a huge amount of time looking there. Nice to know they do provide that type though, thanks.

Not really wisdom as much as it was not wanting to repair my loader any more than I had to. I had already had a problem with one of the drive pumps...a roll pin sheared on the yoke which operates the pistons inside the pump. Anway, I called all over the country looking for replacement pumps, and...

The 1816 was originally powered with a 16hp engine, and the one in mine was an 18.2 Wisconsin engine. Someone had already put a different engine in it. I figured the original size 16hp engine would be enough. After putting it in and using it, it will work for most of what I do with it. Sometimes...

I barely tacked the collar to the pulley, then checked it several times and ways to determine if it would wobble. From what I could tell eyeballing and spinning it, it looked perfect. After welding it all the way around and putting it on and starting it up, I can't see even the slightest wobble...

I asked the forum guys for a section on repowering skidsteers since that was the reason I found this site, and I figured there were others out there like me who likely had a good skidsteer, but the engine wore out. I see quite a few older ones out there yet, several being sold at auction, and...

Thanks guys for adding the section. I suppose since I started all this I should go over there and make a post.

AK, I wish I would have seen your post months ago...you probably have already repowered your machines. I also have an 1816, and bought a 16hp Vanguard from Smallenginewarehouse.com. I got the engine fairly quickly, but didn't measure the shaft right before ordering, and got one smaller than I...

I would like to suggest adding a repower category. There are more than a few posters here who likely may not be interested in this category since they have newer machines, but there are still many machines out there that could still be used, but their engines are worn out. In Farmshow magazine...

“Just another link for pumps. It would be nice if we could add links to a single list. It would be a lot cleaner. Not complaining, just a thought. Mike http://stores.ebay.com/skidloader-hydraulic-parts-source “ If there was an edit function, I could edit my original post and add the links to...

Thanks Owen for putting up the salvage/parts section. The links below might be helpful for anyone looking for parts for their machines. I have an old Case 1816 which is pretty hard to find parts for, but most of the links should be helpful for any machine. http://www.skidsteerhistory.com/...

Thanks Owen, I'll post a number of links there that might be helpful.

Thanks Tazza, I have been to Ebay, and many other sites on the net, including Eaton's. I called Eaton's, but the pump I have is too old. I have also called several other dealers all over the nation, and can't find one. Hopefully the roll pin will be the only problem once I replace it. As for the...

Hi, Being new to the forum, I am not sure if there is such a section, but it would be very helpful to have a section for listing salvage yards or other parts sources. As I mentioned in the Case forum, I have an old 1816 and I really like it, but I had a problem with the hydraulic pump, and have...

Hi all, unbelievable finding this forum. I have owned an old Case 1816 for about three years now, and it's a great little machine. I use it to haul gravel, manure, push snow, etc. I also built forks for it for hauling hay. I had a problem with one of the Vickers hydraulic pumps, so I started...
