    5000 lift issues

    I didnt mean I thought it would get better than current, just better than last week when it would only raise with throttle wide open. I felt there would be some oil coming back through the return, but was hoping for some valve troubles or something similar causing it to be so much? Maybe I...

    5000 lift issues

    I took the 4 bolt cover off this afternoon. There was oil running down from several places but I couldnt really identify exactly where. There was a tremendous flow coming out of the small valve on the bottom of the return strainer. Not sure if that is right or not?? I pulled the lift top and...

    5000 lift issues

    I told him I would bring my inspection camera Thursday and try to enter through the fill hole in the top of the rear end and hopefully I can see oil pouring down somewhere?? Never tried that with a Ford but years ago we would remove the side covers on MF and could see exactly what was leaking...

    5000 lift issues

    It looks like to me the valve should shut complete oil flow off to the lift cylinder which in turn should slow the drift down. Im thinking we may have either a problem with the ASC valve. This is almost the only possible thing that could make the lift drift down quicker with the valve opened and...

    5000 lift issues

    He is pretty sure it was out all the way. It was 25 and 13 minutes instead of seconds. I misunderstood his text. He also said with the valve out, there was a slight clicking noise inside as it was dropping.

    5000 lift issues

    Had him go home after work and check. The results were it took about 25 seconds with the knob in,,,,, about 13 seconds with it pulled out. Not 100% sure of the purpose of the valve (maybe someone could educate us on that as well) but definitely made it drop quicker when engaged

    5000 lift issues

    Here is what I have found out. The lift never completely quit. After getting hot, the lift struggles to lift the bush hog completely. He said it was definitely better than before we changed the pump and strainer so there was some wear there. He said the pto performed fine so its getting plenty...

    5000 lift issues

    It shouldnt be the pump as I just replaced it this past week with a new one. I will talk to him tomorrow at work and find out exactly how it acts when he stated it quit. I wouldnt doubt some internal leaks and Im not sure about the unloading valve. Is it possible to test or check it somehow?

    5000 lift issues

    He just called and said it quit. I have to find out if it quit completely or just got very weak? I remember on the older Fergusons you could remove one of the side covers and actually see where the worst oil leaks were at the top cover. The side covers on the Ford seam to be a lot lower so Im...

    5000 lift issues

    My friend has a 74 or 75 model 5000. He was having some issues with the lift not raising when fluid got hot. We replaced the hydraulic pump as well as the input strainer and it lasted a little longer before showing issues but still has problems. He is using a 6 bush hog and everything works...

    Im not sure what the difference in the single spool kit with hoses for $300 and some of the other valve only products that are over $500??

    Ford 5000 Remote Hydraulics

    Has no one had any dealings with using an aftermarket remote kit??

    Ford 5000 Remote Hydraulics

    So far, the only replacement handles I have found are around $165 since they are also no longer being produced. I may could fashion some type of metal handle that would work , but if I purchase this with the hoses and rubber end caps the kit would still be cheaper ( if it would fit??).

    Ford 5000 Remote Hydraulics

    I figured the heat would destroy the inside of the valve unless we were really lucky. We also do not have the original handle or broken pieces due to it happening before he purchased the tractor
