Replacing Broken Main Control Spring Plunger

[DrLarryE]

I need to replace the plunger. In the shop manual the plunger guide is made up of what looks like 4 pieces, the draft control spring plate and the hydraulic spring seat, which I have. I need to get a "seat, hydraulic lift draft control spring" (this is how it is listed with discount tractor parts) which was missing, and what look in the picture like a washer. Is this the "felt, spring seat" listed with the parts company? I want to make sure I get everything I need at once.
Also, I imagine it would be very difficult to reattach the control fork to the pump control valve if the sump is not emptied, correct?

Thanks

Probably possible. Noty easy in any case. I stradle the tractor and put one arm in each inspection port to do it. Hobo made a special tool to do it.

You might check with Jim.UT or John Smith for the seat you're missing.
There is a felt washer in there, I think they're about $5 new.
You can get them from this site or others. Used felt would most likely be worn out.

YT has the parts and I ordered them this AM...Just wanted to make sure I was ordering the right parts.
