Hey there, new to this site- I've enjoyed reading everything so far.
Have a new to me L345 with a loader. I have a hydraulic leak around the shaft of the hydraulic pump (located at the front of the tractor) and decreased power to the loader only- PTO is strong. I was able to find a rebuild kit with replacement seals. I think I will try this before buying a new pump.
I would like to do a pressure test on the system before and after this fix, any idea of the correct pressure specs on an L1700 loader. Also what kind of pressure gauge should I use?
Looking for any advise on rebuilding this thing. Do the bolts on the pump need to be torqued or any cautions when replacing the shaft seal?
Thanks for any advise.
