730 case ck help

[green bugger]

can any case experts give me some info on my 730 ck ser#8258630.when trying to get some parts from our local caseih dealer we ran into a problem with the model year,accordind to tractor data this ser# makes it a 1965 but the parts guy says they didn't make a 730 ck until 66.whats the scoop?

i changed the front hubs and wheels from a narrow front i have because i thought they would hold up better with a loader,it came with the 4bolt 16" hubs and wheels.[/img]

thanks,ken

You need to find a smarter parts man.Comfort king 7-830's started in 1965,S/n 8253501 I think.

That is a real nice looking 730!!

I am envious!

I noticed the loader brackets on the tractor could you please post pictures of the loader brackets on the tractor with another picture of the loader on the tractor, that’s if it’s handy?

I drove a 730CK Diesel when I was younger, it was the handiest tractor you could have, it had a case loader with a bale spear.

When the old guy sold his farm I went to the sale just to see that ole tractor one last time.

I think it sold for around $4200 with loader.

I would have loved to have bought that tractor but I didn’t have any money at the time, sort of like now.
