Hello all! First post. I usually lurk and search, but can't find my answer.
I have a 2003 B7500 with the LA272 loader on it. It's weak IMO. I have checked pressure and want to bump it a little up to around 2200psi. I do believe that's what the LA302 loader pressure was. Or does anybody think it's ok to go a little higher? If the la302 was 2200, could I go 2300 or 2400?
Best I can tell the only difference between the la302 and la272 was 200 psi and a grill guard.
Where is the correct relief valve to do this? I have shims in hand, I have a pressure tester etc.... is it on the loader valve? Or down on the right side of the transmission housing by the filter?
I know this tractor is small, but it won't lift the front end without curling the bucket, and sometimes then it won't still. Most times a full bucket of dirt will not pick up, I have to back up some and let some fall out, or tilt the bucket to get some out to lift the loader arms up.
It has 165 hrs on it, I serviced the fluid at 153 hrs when I got the tractor.
Any help is appreciated.
