Kurtis lets see if I understand everything works but the 3 point and you bought it and you want to know what its worth so you can flip it,, is that about right?

The "stop spending" limit would be based on what you are using the machine for. If you don't need the 3-pt is different then "gotta have the 3-pt".

So you have to determine your use. Then you have to determine what's needing replaced/repaired to come up with a cost number. Then YOU can determine to go ahead or sell.

I'd bet the fix is cheap. Probably a link on the control came off or similar. Look around, maybe you can fix it.

I had an intermittent problem with my 3pt not working. It was the pressure re leaf valve sticking. Took it apart, cleaned it and no further problem. Could also be the O rings or the piston - not that $ and not hard to replace. Worth a little exploratory surgery.:)

Ok so far i got it all apart i found one bad o ring that is the inner one at the piston. Another thing i found is the fluid has lots of water so im draining all i can get out. One question i found one drain plug under the center of transmission there is one on each side on the drive cases but it is leaving a pretty good bit in the section under the seat. Is there a way to drain that section and can i flush it all out with diesel fuel?
Now i have another problem i can not find out how to fix. on the underside of the top housing is a 2 valve body the valves move freely. there is a nut on one side and a hickey ma do on the other can someone tell me how to adjust or show me a youtube video? I feel like this might be my problem if it is not set right. If i turn the hickey ma do it adjust both sides a little but i can not find out how. Thanks for any help I guess i should have gone to college back in 1942 and they could have shown me how to fix my 1978 kubota lol :D
