    Valve spool retaining bolt

    I finally had time to do some more looking into the problem. The part "O" apparently is broken off and the bottom half came out and the upper half is stuck in the valve body according to the mechanic. It seems to me that the part it would be threaded into is the spool that moves inside the valve...

    Apparently he's a different guy replacing the guy that originally screwed it up but he's no better

    Valve spool retaining bolt

    I agree. It was in there because the third function kit they put on leaked at almost every fitting. It was only in there to That's exactly where it's at. It was in there because most of the fittings on the third function they installed leaked. They followed up their first mistake with another...

    Valve spool retaining bolt

    Thanks. It's the bucket valve and I got thinking about it and I wonder what he did with the spring. The valve works fine just doesn't return to center unless I put it there. He said if I take the tire off there is a cover I can remove to access it better. It's very frustrating because it was...

    Valve spool retaining bolt

    I picked up my l4240 from the dealer today. It was in for something unrelated but while it was there the mechanic noticed the loader valve up under the tractor was leaking and needed o rings. As soon as I lifted the bucket and curled it I noticed something wasn't right. I went inside and was...

    I have no first hand experience with the Pat's ot the speeco. I was able to find a dealer with new QH15s for under $550. I was able to find bushings for 10 bucks a side so add $20 for each implement and to me it's worth it for the quality of the Land Pride QH. The QH16 should be as tight on a...

    To be honest I have never looked to see if mine has ball joints at both ends. I assumed it only has them on the implement end. Taking that pivot away seems like a bad idea if you need to tilt anything. I will go look at mine in the morning.

    I recently added a QH15 to my tractor. I looked at the speeco due to the price but I saw different pictures and videos that showed the lower hooks leaving a gap between it and the pins. Now that I have the QH15 I'm happy with my decision to spend a few more bucks and get what I really wanted...

    Turf to R4 Swap

    I'm not real happy with my local dealer at the moment. I just had my tractor there for a few weeks waiting for some work to be done. After a couple of promised to be completed dates came and went I picked it up and brought it home. I really don't want to talk to them about anything at the...

    Turf to R4 Swap

    Hi everyone! I've gotten a lot of good information on this site and now I have a question. I am looking to swap my L4240 turf tires with R4 tires. The tires I have are in decent shape but I am getting ready to do some more severe duty work that will be better suited to R4s. Where is a good place...
