I know this is really old but I put a Rockshaft Housing from a L3710 on mine and it bolted right up. I had to engineer the hydraulic lines differently, but it works well if anyone needs a direction to go in.

Any pics or maybe a parts list for future reference?

Interesting!
I had to check out the parts diagrams from Messick's site.
https://www.messicks.com/ku/93333 (L3710)

Select "Hydraulic System" and "Hydraulic Cylinder"

I had to buy part 170, the one i got with the case was different or custom. I also had to buy the pieces inside the case because mine didnt match exactly. Instead of the hydraulics going from the pump to the case, i ended up going to the bucket valve first, then the hoe, then the case because this case doesnt have the same inlets. It was a lot of experimenting, trial and error to get things to work, not to mention the money.
