I got the Wildfire XLT lift last November. Haven't had any issues or complaints on it so far. I chose the XLT since I wanted longer ramps and wider stance since I had the space for it. I've had everything from UTVs, cars, trucks and mid size tractors (7K lbs) on it with no problem. The...

Yeah, the prepay requirement and long, imprecise wait time (always 3-4ish months) kept me from buying a grapple from them and purchasing from a different vendor. When I tried to buy a woodchipper from Woodmaxx it was out of stock and they put me on a list and would notify me when it was in...

You correctly diagnosed the issue. One of the rear remotes was moved into an active position. Probably bumped it when using the 3pt lever. I figured it would be something simple. Thanks.

Been plowing a lot of snow with the back blade so I've been using the 3pt and the bucket to move it around. After an extended time of mostly back blading it no longer would lift. The bucket still is functional so hydraulic pressure seems ok. Haven't checked it out too much yet but both the...

I agree that this is the way to go. Teflon tape works well on softer fittings like brass or if you put a steel fitting in aluminum but steel on steel (especially stainless) needs a sealant. The cheaper China made fittings that I have gotten don't seem to have a good thread form and tend to...

Even better. While I was updating my post you already had the answer. Thanks.

I have this style of hydraulic hose fitting on a Titan implement and want to change out the hoses. I don't seem to be able to nail down exactly what form this is. I think it is using the NPSM thread form and seal but it doesn't match up with the specs I have found. The ID of the external...

S HST is LS version of a servo HST. Basically an electronic method of moving the HST engagement. This results in virtually no pushback in the pedals and a lighter pedal effort.

I just changed both of the hydraulic filters on the MT3 at 61 hrs. I just about always cut apart any filter I change to see how much debris is in the filter. Here's both the filters cut apart. The low pressure inlet filter is nothing special just large in size. Here's where just about all the...

Interesting. I assume the down side of using threaded links is the adjustment time to fit various implements. The design they have on this tractor seems to be very weak.

Is your video still out there? I've taken some pics of my install thus far and may post a few when I'm fully installed. I think with the time I have invested, a video would overload my phone storage.:rolleyes: Update: found your video. Your install and parts are completely different than...

Since you asked; Missing bolts to hold the solenoid to manifold, wrong size fittings for the hoses (-6 AN vs -8), thread galling on the straight threads of the fittings that fit into the aluminum manifold, can't install the power beyond port hose without grinding on a bracket for the loader...

I'm thinking by the lack of replies that very few Summit kits have been sold for the MT3. With all the installation issues I have encountered I can understand why. Too bad since it seems to have a lot of promise just short on execution.

I was wondering if anyone has installed a 3rd function kit specifically on a MT3 series tractor with rear remotes. My dealer installs WR Long kits only but Summit indicated to me they put together a kit that fits this tractor series. I bought in and have seen some issues on installation. Any...

I was at the local TYM dealer and was looking over their tractor line. Seems to be fairly well put together. One thing it is beefier on is the telescopic stabilizer links for the 3pt arms. Much heavier and a better design than the LS. I didn't get a pic but did find this on their website...
