Bought a new 2009 case 450 I use it for all construction needs I am the only one who operates it. The machine has less than 400 hrs on it and looks like new. started to get a scratching noise below my feet so shut her down hauled to my dealer that sold it to me. Found that right side hydraulic wheel drive shelled a bushing that wraps around the piston that drives the wheels on the internal cam. Obvious part failure. Sent metal filings through the system. Tore main hydraulic pump apart has grooving on brass components. At this point I'm in it 1700.00 ...need a complete right hand drive, possible rebuild on the main pump and a complete decontamination of the hydraulic system. not sure what I'm asking maybe venting more that anything.
