    Gene, yes the steering housing was swapped as well. I looked at it pretty carefully and couldn't see any obvious flaws.

    thanks Jim. Yeah all the orings got switched out, but it could be possible one got out of place when the valve assembly was inserted in the housing. Not exactly easy to get back together. Just doesn't make sense to me the new (different) valve would have the exact same issue as the old...

    Jim, where did you get the image of the valve you mentioned with the plug. I can't find one like that on JDparts. None of the sectional drawings seem to match my loader. They all look like closed center. Perhaps someone replaced the valve? Your image looks right, but I need part numbers. The...

    Bob, Yes that's what I thought about the steering. But here is what I did: I have 2 pretty much identical machines. Before ripping apart the steering on the running tractor, I tore out the one on the parts tractor, replaced ALL the seals, cleaned the valves, one was sticking a bit, and installed...

    So if I understand correctly... cap off the output at the pump, then check pressure off the pump directly using the port on top opposite the destroke valve?

    So I turned down the pressure a bit. Haven't rechecked it to see where it's at. When disconnected, oil flows out the hose coming from the side port of the valve, which is plumbed to the filter housing, no oil flows from the other hose unless the valve is cracked. However, the oil slowed to...

    Thanks guys. I really appreciate all the help. So if the loader is open center, how would I check to see if the valve is operating properly? If my understanding is correct, oil is always flowing through the third line back to the transmission? I'm going to disconnect the pressure line...

    1020 hydraulic issues

    There is a second (return?) hose going to a port right near the fill hole on the back of the transmission. If I remember right it comes off the left side of the loader valve just above the return going to the filter housing. Is that a filter bypass? If so what do I do with that hose to check it?
