$999. Great price. It's $1290. Now, still a great price. That was my other choice. You can't add a grapple to your bucket for any less. Summit 3rd function and grapple less than $2000. They both support their products really well if something is legitimately wrong.

Been a while since I posted but I read constantly. Reviews and opinions on tools and attachments are helpful so I'd like to give mine on a recent purchase of the MTL economy 48" root grapple. My tractor is an L3901 TLB so the 48" sounds small but in reality it's the perfect size for this...

I'm back in business!! I can lift again. Dan as I read thru many of your replies, your "not positive" statements are pretty darn spot on. Everything you say makes sense. I did exactly as you said and had my guage on block at start-up. Took few minutes to prime, pump was packed with...

The pump was 173. Delivered. Which was 330 less than eBay But 127 is really low. At this point I was happy to pay them 173. Of that 35 was shipping. Summit said next week with luck. I'm going to see how the loader and 3ph behave with good psi and the stock shims in the loader relief valve...

New pump arrived today. Ordered it Monday morning 5:30 am est. DHL delivered Wednesday afternoon at 4:30 pm from Whitehouse Products Ltd. In Great Britain. This pump was $330. Less than the cheapest one on eBay, $210. less than Legacy pumps here in the US, $575. less than Kubota. And...

Dan. I thought the same on udt/super udt. but didn't dare say it lol. I got a good education from you on this entire repair. You also saved me much $$$. I thank you again. I now will have much of what I need to do some hyd p. tests in the future. I'm going to order pump now. Jim

Lots of rubber on screen, lots of fine metallic in oil. I bought the tractor for a cheap price knowing of hyd. issues It looks and runs like a 2 year old tractor otherwise. I've done 1 drain and refill, ran for an hour and will do another including all lower plugs before new pump goes in...

No kits available. No water in oil. Just never changed

B1750 gear drive with 640 original hours. Bought this tractor recently from a friend. Hours are correct but hyd. Oil never changed or screen never cleaned. Tractor is loosing hyd. pressure both at the loader valve and the hydraulic block (1500 psi when cold drops to 500psi when hot)...

Couple weeks before doing cylinders; parts coming from Europe. 1/10 price of Kubota, 1/4 price of USA aftermarket suppliers like BDI or HW. Many OEM seals are sourced from European or Asia. Will match OEM material (polyurethane, nitrile, moly impregnated, etc) or upgrade to what's on...

I just priced them thru surplus ctr. $821 w/shipping and tax. I have to go the hew seal route. Thks for the research. Amazon might be a little cheaper.

Yes. eBay. Here's a screenshot of the seller. They also have a website I think but I just buy off eBay.

This is a sample on a piston seal showing size and price. When I find a suitable replacement I'll make sure I post it all over the internet. Replacements like this are fine for this old tractor. As long as the seal is properly spaced and packed in the grove. I'll report back in few weeks.
