Front end loader control valve leaking

[Isaidright]

Hi all, front loader control valve is leaking, is it usually a simple seal replacement? If so is this a straight forward job? Not sure which loader I have as no numbers visible. Thanks

To me that does not look bad enough to worry sbout. The seals are at the point where the spools exit the body.

Thanks Dan, that was cleaned up - it’s constantly dripping out over my foot and the floor - so much so that I have to keep topping up the fluid. I guess it will only get worse

I suggest you determine the model number and lookup the parts breakdown. Seals are not hard but taking detents containing lots of little Jesus!! parts that are under tension apart to get to the seals can be "interesting"
