Pressure relief valve

[Ktrim]

I finished repairing my 3pth hydraulics on b2400. New control valve, new seat poppet and spring in relieve valve. I measured the shims that came out and replaced with new. Actually have slightly less shim now than was in there.
My question is the relieve valve is popping at 2000psi. Factory specs say 1920 to 1991 psi. Will this be ok or should I try different shims?

I'd leave it as is. At worst (1920) you're at a four percent margin of error. That may be closer to where it should be than the accuracy of your gauge. I think adding shims increases pressure but could be wrong.

Kubota's always seem to be on the low side from the factory ........ simply for safety! While the plumbing can handle 3000 psi burst, 2000 is a perfect number. On my BX I went from 1750 to 2000 - been that way for 8 years!

I would be happy with that especially if you are measuring at rated engine speed and cold oil.

Also, how much faith do you have in the gage you are using to measure the pressure?

When was it last calibrated, if ever? Point being, relax and follow Lugbolt's advice...
