Re: 2388 high speed gears?

"High speed gears" is pretty vague. Care to explain?

Re: 2388 high speed gears?

Very simple if you have the electric 2 speed just reach down by the shifter & push the micro switch off to the side & presto you get high range in 3rd gear [normaly blocked out from the factory] trick I learned when I was on wheat harvest!!!!!!

Re: 2388 high speed gears?

just put the 2 wire on the c terminal of the micro switch. High all the time lol.

When I rebuilt out 2388 gearbox in 2006 we went through all the case stuff and mad sure that we had the highest 2nd gear ratio we could. There are 2 diffrent 2nd ratios in the case parts system.

We now have a 2588 and no point trying to gear her up flat out keeping speed as it is, dont know why, not lossing HP, and it dont matter how full the tank is, will drop 3 or 4 km on a hill.

Re: 2388 high speed gears?

Thats is it our 2588 will drop from around 15km/h sometimes down to 10km/h cumming up a sandhill. Only loss 10 or 20 rpm, not working hard in a 1 or 2 bag crop.

No we dont have rear wheel drive and our hills arnt that high or step ether, can get up them just the 2588 loss more speed than the 1688 or 2388 did.

Re: 2388 high speed gears?

we find it abit with our 7010 to madsnake doesn't drop rpms just a bit of speed we have a 99 2388 with 4500hrs and it doesn't slow as much as the 7010.
been hearing up here a few blokes not realy happy with case after the last season for sevice and reliability i think.

Re: 2388 high speed gears?

Re: 2388 high speed gears?

we are between pittsworth and clifton on the condamine river just south of toowoomba.
we had not a bad run with the 7010 this year is the 2588 out of warranty.

Re: 2388 high speed gears?

Blanchfarm, things would be looking ok there at the moment?

It was out of warranty en of last year, its well know to case and the dealer about the ground speed. Dads mate got one the same time from same dealer, same spec and its the same for ground speed.

tracks on a case 2388?

I'm thinking about putting some tracks on my 2003 case 2388 but it will drop the speed in all gears down by a third. Is there any way (easy way) to change the gear ratios in the gearbox?
