Have you checked pressure at the cylinders yet? I would not take anything apart until I confirmed the pressure from the tractor was low.
Mr. Dan, Yes I have and at idle it’s less than 200 at the cylinder. I have made some bone head moves since Friday. Prior to me making the original post I had already ordered and paid to have a pump overnighted because I needed the tractor for the weekend. The new pump didn’t change a thing, secondly I have another tractor that is working perfectly and I switched the relief valves and the tractor with issues still has issues and the other one works fine.
yeah. Lift control valve as Dan called it, position control valve, all the same thing.
Over the many yrs I been associated with repairing tractors I've read of many hyd pumps being replaced without good hyd diagnostic procedures being performed only to determine as you did that the replaced hyd pump was not the problem. I also agree some hyd diagnostic procedures can be difficult to perform.
Found the thread with the top cove removed showing th position control valve

Awesome thank youFound the thread with the top cove removed showing th position control valve

Everything as normal except your comment on the lowering speed valve. You start by saying valve is open and then you say it won't lower unless you open it. That is contradictory. Was the test run with the lowering speed valve open or closed? It should be run with the valve open. Need a much...
So I finally found the problem. The draft linkage was beginning to freeze up. I disconnected the linkage (shown in picture) and noticed it was a little hard to move back and forth. I exercised it and now it has 1500 psi at the remote at idle.
Mr Dan just wanted to let you know I was able to fix the issue and wasn’t sure if you saw the post. I disconnected the draft linkage and exercised the rod which seemed like it was trying to freeze up.
So do you think the draft rod is freezing up were it goes into the rock cover or would it be in the valve, either way the cover has to come off correct? It’s working now but with me just exercising that rod a couple times I am sure it’s not long before it stops working again.
Thats interesting but I fail to see how that would affect pressure at a remote. Presumably the remotes are ahead of thd 3pt valve. A WSM would be helpful.
The WSM calls for 2632 -2770psi at 2600 and it’s just over 2600 at 2600 RPMs. I have a hard enough time with draft in general but I guess if it’s not closing all the way it was allowing pressure to bypass???
So you are in fact getting full pressure at the remotes.
The WSM is calling the rod the draft feedback rod.
I can see how draft control might be causing your 3pt lift problem. I cannot see how it would affect pressure at the remote. Your pressure test indicates you are getting full system pressure delivered to the 3pt control valve.
Understood. So a couple factors, human (lol), secondly I went to Kubota and bought new fittings for the remote, lastly I took the relief valve out for another visual inspection and backed it off a turn, tightened it two turns. So unfortunately to many variables to nail it down to one, but the draft controls “probably” had nothing to do with remote pressure.
