Hello everyone.
I am wondering if anyone has experienced weak stabilizers on their backhoe? I have a L48 with the BT1100 backhoe and the stabilizers seem to pick up the back end of the tractor only a tiny bit. I would say about 4 inches. They do not fully extend as I thought they should when under load. I can pick up the back end completely with the boom and test the travel of the stabilizers, and the do travel the entire amount. They do not leak down when extended and the rest of the backhoe functions work great. System pressure is spot on and engine rpm is about 2000. I will post a video in the next couple of days and test if I am leaking by the piston. I do not suspect this because I am getting about 2750 PSI for the hydraulic lines to the stabilizer cylinder.
Backhoe has about 200 hrs on it.
On a side note, I owned and L39 TLB and the stabilizers were able to pick up the tractor with now issues.
Thanks
