    Ford 4000 rear hydraulic not working properly

    Final update (hopefully) Over this week end I believe I finally got the hydraulics working properly. I think what happened is on reassembly the first time the dog bone part that pushes the piston fell out of place and was stopping anything from working. But while I had the lift cover off I did...

    Ford 4000 rear hydraulic not working properly

    I did not check the control linkage positions when it was removed. So that could be an issue as well, I am guessing the specs for the linkage would be in the repair manual? I have a book from tractor supply, but honestly it feels pretty confusing and like not all the diagrams and pictures match...

    Ford 4000 rear hydraulic not working properly

    These pictures are before and after removing the plate, on videos I have seen there is a spring in line with the top hole. Mine did not though. The 3 point lift has worked in the past though, just took forever to get going, Any idea for a place to buy a replacement spring?

    Ford 4000 rear hydraulic not working properly

    I have posted a couple of other places too, and someone said that the unloader valve should be almost free floating, mine needed a little touch but wasn't free floating. Someone else recommended using part number C9NNH893A which is a metal ring. But also said the whole spool would have to be...

    Ford 4000 rear hydraulic not working properly

    You are correct but mine does not have a hole for it, in the Rachel video it is in the bottom left corner everything else is identical, you can even see a slight circle where it could be

    Ford 4000 rear hydraulic not working properly

    I did remove and clean the unloader valve I did not remove the control valve, there wasn't a saftey valve at all I may have re assembled it incorrectly, thought I did but I have been wrong before

    Ford 4000 rear hydraulic not working properly

    Update: Took the lift cover off last Saturday. Drained the hydraulic fluid Removed and exercised the unloading valve and replaced its o-ring.

    67 Ford 4000 diesel Hydraulics

    I am far from an expert I am currently battling hydraulic issues with my 68 4000. But a few things to check that have helped me, 1) What kind of oil did you use? The thickness matters and what I use and was recommended to me is "J20A Plus Utility Tractor Hydraulic Fluid" from tractor supply...

    Ford 4000 rear hydraulic not working properly

    The second square plug is here on the body of the tractor circled When we took it apart we cleaned the suction screen the best we could, but to totally remove it it seemed like we would have to split the rear end away and we didn't do that. In the past whenever I have got flow to the top plate...
