I recently decided to replace everything in the hydraulic system on my loader due to leaking cylinders, frayed hoses on the verge of blowing and a control valve assy that was falling apart.
I went ahead and sprung for all brand new components to hopefully make life easier.
So far, not the case.
Its all installed according to specs and diagrams Ive been able to find. The problem is that when I engage the lift, it only booms up about 3 inches. If I back off the lever and release some pressure, I can engage it again and boom up another 3 inches. I can raise the boom up all the way but only 3 at a time.
The other problem is that the bucket cylinder wont go in or out but the system loads up like its over pressure.
Im pretty confident that all components are in good shape and seals are good.
Ive never replaced a complete system before and was hoping for a plug-and-play program. Im at a bit of a loss as to what to try next. It seems so close to working. Any ideas are appreciated.
