I just sold one of those in So Cal that was pretty weathered for $5500.Tired hydraulics. If you were in Idaho I'd buy it! Good luck, Dave

Is the pump rebuildable or should I just replace? If its rebuildable i would rather just replace a few o rings, etc. And know they are good. I'm going to tee the system off before the hose to the loader valve next to the motor. Seems like an out of the way place and strange that from the factory...

Where should I put the pressure gauge Wolfman? I put it on the block coming out on the side by the pump. Removed the line going to the loader. I plan on moving to Sagle by the way. Been looking for land there for a couple of years.

I bought it used from my local Kubota dealer and I assumed it was up to snuff then. I run factory hydraulic fluid from Kubota. Maybe I should just change it for a start. Has always been clean. No water "milk". I know brake fluid in cars goes bad after awhile. Looses its ability to compress.

I have a 7200 with about 800 hours that I bought 10 years ago with about 600 hours. The loader has always seemed weak to me. It has gotten to the point that it will barely lift a half bucket of moist, not soaked, dirt. Full throttle needed too. I tested pressure off the distribution block next...
