    Ford 3400 rear hydraulic pump drive gear broke

    Thanks for the input, guys! I figured before I start pulling the front of the tractor off, I would try and extract the sheared off bolt. Looking at the broken bolt, I was sure it had been stretched and was pretty much a permanent part of the crank shaft. I cut a slot into the end of the bolt...

    Ford 3400 rear hydraulic pump drive gear broke

    Looking into this further this may not be a good idea. It seems the cam may be cast iron. Does the motor indeed have to be pulled to replace cam? Could it maybe go out the back of the motor? Thanks

    Ford 3400 rear hydraulic pump drive gear broke

    Hello, the rear hydraulic pump on my ford 3400 diesel tractor seized and this caused the drive gear that is mounted to the rear of the camshaft to shear from the cam. The tractor still runs fine. I located a replacement pump and gear. I have split the tractor and found the gear bolt and dowel...

    Ford 3400 rear hydraulic pump drive.

    Hello, About a year ago I rebuilt the rear hydraulic pump on my Ford 3400 diesel tractor and it worked great after fighting slow rear lift issues for over 20 years. Suddenly it stopped working again. I pulled the pump off and the drive gear that is on the end of the camshaft spins freely. The...

    Installing PTO hydraulic pump vs tapping into rear lift pump

    I'm building a 35-40 ton 3 point log splitter that will be run by a Ford 3400. What are the pros and cons of using a PTO Hydraulic pump vs tapping into the rear lift pump. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Rear hydraulic lift problems.

    Im finally getting a chance to get back to my tractor issues. I got a top cover kit that replaced all the o-rings on the top accessory cover as well as the lift cylinder. I replaced the o-ring and backer on the piston as well as honing the bore that looked pretty good. I pretty much followed...

    Rear hydraulic lift problems.

    I do not believe the lift arms were lifted by hand at any time. When the hydraulic lift started acting up the Gannon was attached. I have since pulled the top lift cover off. The bottom of this hydraulic cavity is covered in sludge and around the suction filter its about a half inch thick and...

    Rear hydraulic lift problems.

    I assumed that when I turned the top accessory plate 180 that all the passages would be backed up by solid steel but apparently some will still line up with openings because I did have 2 holes pushed through the gasket I made. I'm not sure what I was supposed to do different. With a 1/4" Tee...

    Rear hydraulic lift problems.

    [Hello, thanks again for the input here. I took the four bolts off and house the flow control valve and it seems after reading the manual that the top lift cover has to come off first. Here is what I was going to do unless someone can advise me different. I was going to first drain the fluid and...

    Rear hydraulic lift problems.

    Thank you for responding. Yes that is the same picture I have in my manual. I tried to add it to my last post but I was not able to. Not sure but it might be because I just signed up for this fourm. If something is wrong with this assembly would it cause my pressure to maybe zero? If I pull this...

    Rear hydraulic lift problems.

    Hello, I did not get any responses to my rear hydraulic problem on my Ford 3400 and was thinking maybe I didnt explain something correctly or perhaps I need to outline the test procedure that I performed from the I&T repair manual. The procedure described in the manual is to remove the plug...

    Rear hydraulic lift problems.

    Hello, I have a Ford 3400 and am having problems with the rear hydraulic lift. It only rises a couple inches and work sporadically. I performed a hydraulic pressure test as outlined in the I&T shop manual. I removed the top accessory plate and rotated it 180 degrees and made a block off...

    Ford 3400 Year model and fuel injection pump questions.

    Hello, I appreciate the help here. Looking in my I&T shop manual it appears I have the Simms style injection pump on my 69 model. I believe the 75 model had the C.A.V. style pump because I dont remember seeing the three main injector line lined up like on the Simms pump. Is one of the pumps...

    Ford 3400 Year model and fuel injection pump questions.

    Hello, I have a 1969 Ford 3400 tractor that seems to be quite tired. The motor still runs good but the rear hydraulics are kind of sketchy, the transmission slips after about 10 minutes of hard work, Ive been driving around with just one power steering cylinder (which still works...
