Update, I switched the hoses going into my control valve and it did the same thing but the levers were just the opposite. So we then bypassed the rear hydraulics like someone suggested but that didn’t make a difference. I decided to try to rebuild the control valve, John Deere makes an o-ring...

I see what you’re saying now, thank you! Really appreciate everyone’s help on this, I may not be able to work on this for a couple of weeks but as soon as I can I’ll try all the suggestions everyone is given me.

Thank you!

The third port is on the bottom and is labeled PB which I take is power beyond and probably goes to my backhoe. I should be able to just disconnect the two quick disconnects that go to my backhoe and plug them into each other like I do when I remove the backhoe and will do the same thing you...

Oh good, glad to hear. I went onto the John Deere website and they want close to $2200 for one! I’ll search else where. Thanks!

Okay, I’ll give it a shot and switch the hoses over(probably won’t get to it until this weekend). I added the backhoe about 4 years ago, other than that no work has been done to it. I feel like this issue started well after that, maybe the last year, definitely less than a couple of years. I...

No, both circuits are whacky, there’s really no rhyme to reason, it mostly wants to go up when I’m trying to tip the bucket to dump it. It seems like the majority of the time the bucket wants to go up or down when I’m trying to use the tilt lever and it seems to be getting worse and the bucket...

Thank you, really appreciate it!

I have a late 1980’s John Deere 750, recently the bucket hydraulic’s has had a mind of its own. No matter what I do whether it’s tipping the bucket or trying to lower it just keeps wanting to go up. And then all of a sudden it will go down but it’s after shifting the levers back and forth in...

Thanks for the link. Your subframe definitely doesn’t look like the one I took off of the 955 but I’m sure you can modify it to make it work. Here are a few pics I found online when I was researching it.

I too have a 750 and actually just purchased a #7 backhoe for it this week. The one I purchased came off of a 955 as well, as far as I can tell the subframe may have to be shortened by about 2” but won’t know for sure until I have the rear brackets on. The front brackets that came off the 955...
