Are you looking for parts too large to ship?Is there a supplier or a seller in the South Carolina area with Flu419 parts for sale?
Some, yes . I’m looking for the chainsaw , drill and jack hammer for one. But also maintenance parts or hydraulic cylinders and suchAre you looking for parts too large to ship?
These are relatively rare items. There are very few places with parts just sitting on the shelf. Expedition imports in California by far has the largest collection of parts. Other people tend to get pieces and surplus auctions and list them on eBay. After that you may have a person like myself that has parted one out, but at this point I just have a backhoe I’m parting out.Some, yes . I’m looking for the chainsaw , drill and jack hammer for one.

Case dealerI need some backhoe parts
I keep having to correct this. The FLU419 has an M35 backhoe on it which is similar to the 580E. No point in buying the 580C when the military parts books list the Case numbers.If you need Case backhoe parts you should buy the parts book for the Case 35C backhoe. Many, if not most, of the parts are the same as the backhoe on the FLU419. Several sellers offer a hard copy of the book on Ebay for $10.00, some with free shipping. The part numbers are the same as the parts for the backhoe on the FLU419. I have found that book extremely useful. Although the backhoe is an older model, many of the parts are still available from Case dealers.
I agree with you, but I find the Case 35C parts book very easy to use and only $10.00 for a new copy.I keep having to correct this. The FLU419 has an M35 backhoe on it which is similar to the 580E. No point in buying the 580C when the military parts books list the Case numbers.
Isn’t it covered in the Flu419 -24p?I agree with you, but I find the Case 35C parts book very easy to use and only $10.00 for a new copy.
Absolutely, but I find some things easier in the Case Parts Book, especially the illustrations. I use both together when needed. When I'm dealing with the backhoe alone, the Case book only has the backhoe stuff in it.Isn’t it covered in the Flu419 -24p?
Sorry, I misread and thought you were advocating a 580C book. You are correct with the 35C. But I just printed out the military manuals and parts manuals via an online pdf print service.I agree with you, but I find the Case 35C parts book very easy to use and only $10.00 for a new copy.
