    Allmand TLB 25K (not hydraulics)

    Haven’t yet, I just went through a bunch of fixing on other parts of the tractor so it hasn’t made it high enough up on the to do list yet. You could always pop a tie rod out and measure it up and see what you come up with. Moog has a chart with hundreds of them with all the dimensions

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    I also have NH hydraulics sizing up a loader and lift cylinder seal kit and should be ready tomorow. I had one kit that came with the tractor when I bought it. I brought it to them to make a 3 more. It will be interesting to see what their price comes in at.

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    Got it all back together now, seal looked pretty good when I had the pump up on the bench. Funny enough though when I put the pump back in it started to leak a little out the front seal. Fml….I even had brought the pump into NH hydraulics with me to switch out a few boss fittings and at that...

    Tractor vs Skid Steer Loader Specs

    The original poster stated a 7500lb weight limit on his trailer. That basically limits you to a smaller wheeled skid or tractor. Not positive but pretty sure l47 or svl75 would put you over that weight once actually loaded with a bucket. If a trailer upgrade was needed would that also mean a...

    It ended up being stripped coupler on the engine. Ended up pulling both engine and pump. I unbolted the pump and could only get a finger tip on the end of the shaft and felt like the teeth were still there. Pump came out first because I needed the room to get at the coupler. I assessed and then...

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    Update: I got the splined/toothed adapter piece out. Waiting on replacement parts to get here. They are scheduled to be here Monday. It took two attempts of using the procedure from the kohler instructions as well as adding heat with a propane torch. Ended up pulling the engine to do this. Pump...

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    Thanks! And yes explains some of the mystery to why it was setup the way it is. Not ideal but not terrible either lol. I’m going to try to get the stripped part out before ordering just so I’m sure. I saw around $160-180 for the replacement so just want to make sure things come apart before...

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    If removing the stripped coupler does work out and I’m able to get the new one in I will be ecstatic. Yes it does get me back into a not so ideal coupler situation, but atleast it’s repairable if it happens again. Some type of a love joy coupler would be better suited I’m sure, but the current...

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    The past few days I’ve had to put my time into unrelated projects but about to hop back into the tractor disaster. So get this… last night just out of curiosity I started googling a couple new engine options. Looked up kohler because that’s what was originally in the machine. BAM! Google images…...

    I have been letting it soak with some penetrating oil for a few days while I’ve been contemplating which way to go about things. Thanks for the advice with the hammer, I have hit it a few times already and got a good amount of rusty dust to come out the end. Will definetly use a second hammer if...

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    I am most likely going to try and find a love joy setup that will fit. The first love joy couplers that were linked in a previous post are only rated for 15 hp. I’ll have to size up a bit and make sure there is enough room for the outside diameter. I like the thought of the love joy halfs in...

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    Thanks, I like how the backhoe is tucked up tight. The seat is level with the fender height and not sunken down between the fenders and wheels like on a modern tractor. Makes it nice because I installed a swivel seat and can just rotate the seat a bit with my feet up on the fenders to use the...

    I do have the manuals and parts list, the shaft on this engine is 1/8” smaller than the kohler that was originally on it

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    That dimple on the shaft was very suspect at first. It’s not a roll pin or a set screw though. It’s just a dimple, almost as if a grease fitting started to get drilled then just stopped. I can spin the shaft and have since got the rust off and there is nothing.

    Makes sense. Probably explains the reason why they ended up with the current setup.

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    I’m not sure if those are rated for enough horsepower. The current engine is 22 horse, replaced the original kohler. I’m sure they have something similar though that is a bit more heavy duty

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    I was also considering possibly spinning the engine 180 degrees and using the flywheel side. Not sure if the flywheel side would be able to handle the force of powering the pump. This would also leave me with a terrible oil filter location as well as the exhaust right next to the current...

    The coupler in the picture is one piece and has two female ends. One side accepts the splined pump and the other accepts the drive shaft from the motor. I have got the pump out of the way but having a hard time getting the coupler off the engine shaft because the key is not exposed at all. I put...

    Engine drive shaft coupler to hydraulic pump failure. Need help!

    The coupler between my engine and hydraulic pump has completely stripped/sheared out. The engine is a predator 670cc from harbor freight with a 1” shaft and 1/4” keyway. The pump is an Eaton with a 7/8” 13 spline shaft. Currently I am having difficulties with getting the worn out coupler off the...

    I’m thinking stripped coupler from motor to pump as I just went through the same thing on the back coupler between motor and diff. It didn’t blow a bunch of oil everywhere or anything obvious. No obvious cracks as far as I can tell on the pump anywhere. Filter and strainers were changed a year...

    Oil suggestions

    I realize this is months later but I used a Napa gl4 hydraulic fluid. I had used tractor supply in the past just to top off but I did not like what I saw when I got to the bottom of the bucket. It looked like a lot of particles in the traveler tractor supply bucket.

    Resealing stabilizer cylinder, nick in rod. Fix, ignore, replace?

    I have heard of clear nail polish or super glue being used but I have not ever tried. This was a suggestion from a random auto mechanic that seemed a bit out there.

At this point I Wish I just bought a...

    It’s a nice feeling to know if I blow the motor in mine it’s a $600 fix for a new engine. The engine nor horsepower are the limiting factor on these tractors. It lifts the same amount. Goes the same speed. Pushes into a pile til losing traction. Starts every time whether 100 or -10 outside. Can...

    Allmand TLB 25K (not hydraulics)

    That’s kinda what I was figuring, my coupler that sheered was bone dry but pulling the pump off the engine isn’t something I would ever consider a maintenance item. That’s just asking for trouble in my opinion. I’ll most likely go the never cease route when I put the coupler back in just so I...

    I’m in the same exact boat. I know in general people love to think the diesel is so much better than gas but I personally don’t think it makes much of a difference when spinning a little hydro pump. I could see a little less value there in the eyes of some people but I would just get someone...

    Nice! I did end up getting it off doing the same exact process. Kinda nice to have it all apart to clean it up a bit. Until the shaft coupler wore out the drive motor and differential were the only parts I haven’t done some sort of messing around with yet because they seemed good. I guess a...

    Moving the engine would definetly do it. The cam follower on mine was kicking out sideways at one point and it was doing the same thing as yours with forward/reverse speeds. Reverse it felt like it would get a bump of flow from the pump then kinda crawl and then another bump. I got my hydraulic...

    When trying to engage the pedal I noticed the cam follower was loose on mine. So I tightened #32 I believe it was.

    Allmand TLB 25K (not hydraulics)

    I’m pretty sure the doubled up nuts rattled loose and that’s what caused the shaft to loosen a bit from the coupler leaving it to strip.

    My other thought would be one in line and one out line, and the remaining line being for the load sense. It may just give feedback to the pump so it can decifer the demand needed from the pump. I don’t believe my allmand has the load sense.
  51. River Valley Landscaping

    Allmand TLB

    I would think that the way it is setup in your situation is so the machine uses those two lines coming from the gear pump as both to/from depending on which way you are steering. Leaving the tank line to only let a little bit of fluid release when a shock is given to the system, as in steering...
