You guys are too funny. I got the wifey that said no shooting the squirrels, chipmonks, bluejays....you name it... Then the bluejays starting hassling the cat...open season...no jays left... Then the squirrels ate the drip irrigation in the flower bed...no more squirrels for a while... Then...

I have about the same hours on mine...nothing like that play. Mine are greased everyday before I use it...nice and tight. I probably over grease mine...but I figure it is cheap easy insurance... Maybe ask the dealer you got thehoe from...sounds like you got a problem...

The only thing I can figure...is that the hyd cylinder is made from cheap(er) or thinner materials. There is no way that should bend...unless it was weakened before you got it...or the damage from the first bend and fix simply weakened it too.. I have the BH 76 frame mount...and I absolutely...

Thanks OP... Welcome to the forum! This place is great for things like you just experienced...lots of help in here...sometimes you get to do the helping!

I have the essentially the same tractor with loader and BH...filled tires with anti freeze and run at 30 psi... Tractors are tools...rough shouldn't bother you that much...it is not a couch.:rolleyes:

OP...So help me understand what you found... I read your posts a couple of times...and if I understood your write up...you had a bad pressure relief valve...and just swapped around good for bad to test your theory? Thanks...

Any update or progress?

On occassion I have the same dropping while operating problem. I figured out that a speck of contaminant like a paint chip or metal shaving can work its way through the hydraulic system. They lodge in the valves...and sometimes they work their way through. I have had it happen three...

My BH droops overnite too...same year...I have always gotton in the habit of relieving pressure when done for the day. I don't worry about it...no leaks...just leak down. By relieving the pressure by setting down the arm and front bucket...I don't worry about someone touching anything and...

I have the same problem on mine... What is a WSM? I thought the ground was usually the problem....

Also watch that it doesn't create torque that could problems with the joints... If it works for you...that is all that matters... Clean everything to clean bare metal for the best welds...and practice, practice , practice. Cut some of your welds in half to check penetration...

Something is not right. Look at the wear of paint on the floorboard...that is way more wear than couple hundred hours... You say the tires are torn up...that paint has been worn...the 3 pt is jerky...hmmmm.... Unless this guy ran it in gravel or on ac alot...and had rock in his shoes...

Come on guys... A cell phone and a good wife...when it breaks...call your friend to come help fix it or leave it and go have a beer with your buddy and think it over. Call the wifey...tell her it is taking longer than you thought...go ahead and eat dinner...you will be back when you finish...

I got this one in 2009. Here in Kalifornia, you can buy harvest returns for about 9-10k. This one had 135 hours...and when I got it...bought the BH76 and loader too. Dealers threw in the full service and loaded tires. I have not had one thing go wrong or to bitch about. I have also noticed...

I did this with my L2800 and BH 76. I fabbed up the mount and bought a new seat that would fit. Bought a swivel for a tractor seat for about 150 bucks...got a slide mounted so I could get it to adjust it after the turn...and it just wasn't an easy enough process after all the swivel...

Here is a valve detail...works great.

This is how I installed my thumb...I use that thing almost every time I am on the tractor. Bought it with the manual...figured out fast that was a hassle...installed this and the rear remotes for thumb and TnT for box blade... I was going to install the front grapple set up with third...

Thank you gentlemen...this looks like a good project...and thanks for the info. This photo has something I added to mine that I find helpful...tool rack and cage to hold all my crap...

I have the same tractor...and would be interested in that part number for the dipstick instead of that site glass. I have always hated that thing...and might just avoid the leak by swaping out. Thanks.
