A friend of mine has a 2025r deere that he turned his hydraulic pump up a couple hundred psi.. can that be done on my b1750?

Does anyone have any experience pros and cons about the hydraulic pump turn up?

Also I had an old mechanical injection p-pump 12v cummins truck i turned the pump up a little (allowed rack to move more and larger fuel plate) can similar be done to a kubota injection pump?

Pimping your ride? Don't forget to paint flames on the side while you are at it to make your SCUT go faster.

Put a stack of pennies under the relief valve spring and your 1,400lb tractor will now lift 4,000lbs.

BXpanded sells a shim kit to increase the loader hydraulic pressure. I’m not sure if it applies to your tractor model but, I believe the parts are universal, I could be wrong.

Just make sure you have proper ballast and don’t go overboard with increasing the pressure.

That motor was not "detuned" without adding something like a turbo, turning up the fuel will do diddly squat for more power.

wouldnt do it.

the hydraulics are set so you wont hurt the tractor or loader. upping that power gives it enough power to do damage.

just my opinion do what ya want

From another site- both tractors had the hydraulics turned up. I know no other details, so it's no use asking. I'm just posting them to contemplate the end results.

I bought the BX kit with gauge and shims. Mainly to see if I was within factory spec or just below. I was 75psi below spec so a .2 shim was put in which brought it up to spec. Checked a neighbors 3301 with 500hrs on it and it was 150psi. Likely due to wear and tear. A .4 shim brought him up to spec. It was a noticeable on both tractors. The kit is cheap and easy to use.

I have a friend who was a Powestroke tech at a Ford dealership. A 6 month old truck came in with a blown engine. The owner claimed he hadn't modified the engine.

After running a computer diagnostic, my friend discovered the owner had installed an aftermarket chip to up his horsepower.

The owner put the stock chip back in to try and hide what he had done.

Warranty denied, owner out several thousands of dollars.

My dealer did all this for free under warranty. He came and hauled it to the shop and brought it home again, about 70 miles each way. I don't know about "quick and easy" but he said they had to pull off a lot of stuff including the fuel tank. And they did it all so I won't have them fussing about warranty violation if something worse happens later.
