When I’m able to get in there to mess with it, I may send it off if it really needs it. I have sonic cleaner and some good cleaning solutions for gun parts. I would imagine that would do it after all the gunk is cleared up. I’ll see how it looks in the next week or so.

It’s semi difficult to turn the whole time. I’ve been thinking I either need to clean the whole mechanism out or possibly replace it. But I have to get some time to lift the thing up and look first.

I haven’t had a chance to work on it. One issue is that I really don’t have much for a perfectly level place to work on it. My car port where I keep it is the closest. I think I need to get under it and clean it thoroughly to see what I’m working with.

I was running it while lifting. Tried pushing it up too. Still no go. I will check the fluid. I have no more room to adjust 1/4 turn, I bottomed it out trying half turns.

I watched a YouTube video on this. I found the adjustment in the back next to the rear left tire. I bottomed it out. It still won’t lock in the top position. It will adjust 1-4 with no issues. I’m not real sure where to go with it from here. I took the deck off so I was able to scrape my road...

I like that. I might copy some of it.

Thanks all. Some good options to check out. If you come up with anything else let me know. I may try to make something myself.

I saw those. They look good but I’m specifically looking for something to mount to the ROPS. I use some of the tools while scraping the road so I have my box blade on. I don’t think those would fit with the box blade.

I tried the Racks360 from Messicks. Total garbage. It’s broken twice now. I’m sending it back to them. Not sure why they thought flimsy plastic would hold up on a tractor. I really like the idea of that. If it were durable, I’d pay twice what they asked. I’ve got a chainsaw mount. I’d like to be...

Ok, thank you for the detailed explanation!

What is they cylinder?

I got it mostly fixed. I’m down to one leak. I’ll get on that this weekend. I did pull all the lines off and brought them to a hydraulic shop. Do I need to bleed the lines out now? If so, where are there bleed valves on a BX2380 loader?

Sorry, it’s this: FF14F-04N 1/4" Flat Face Hydraulic Quick Connect Female Coupler, 1/4" NPT Thread

It’s this: Eaton Weatherhead C5205X6 Carbon Steel SAE 37-Degree (JIC) Flare-Twin Fitting, Adapter, 1/4" NPT Male x 3/8" JIC Male Amazon

I have not seen that. I’ll give it a try.

It’s hard to tell. I think it’s the tapered joint but I’m not 100% on that. Everything has oil on it after I run it for a few minutes.

Would you all recommend thread dope for the taped fitting? A gasket or O ring maybe? I’ve read in a number of places now that the parts I have are exactly what I need. I’m hesitant to change anything out because this exact set up seems to work for some people. I’ll definitely clean it all up...

So I did exactly this but all my fittings are leaking. I used thread dope, stilll can’t get it to stop leaking. Any suggestions?

This is the fitting: Fitting It does say NPT. Are you sure that would be wrong though? It threads in perfectly. Plus, I can’t find a fitting with the same dimensions in EPT. According to this thread I have the right gear: Orangetractor

What are NPT and BPT?
