We were driving this tractor down the road and all the sudden the shredder dropped and steering quit . Checked fluid and it's full but now hydraulics . Someone said it could be the pump . Anything else that could be checked first? $$$$
I'll second checking frt hyd pump drive coupler. The coupler has been known to get loose on pump shaft and not turn pump. If 3pt or scv powered impl. dropped when pump quit then that hyd function has leaking valves.
We've had this happen before and my guess is that its the stroke control valve. They stick sometimes and the dealer should have a tool that will take care of the problem. .
Yea good job texas Jim for coming up with that stroke control valve idea......wait...what??

You show a 4020, but your topic is 4010. I had a JD 4010 diesel. At about 9 years and 660 hours, the Ujoint off the engine disentegrated. Nothing moves, but engine runs. I worry about the same Ujoint on my 2025R, as it's totally inaccessible like the one on the 4010 is.

jrsavoie is referring to a JD 4010 rowcrop tractor built from '60-'63 not a 4010 CUT built from 03-'05. There's no u-joint on a 4010 RC
I've been looking all morning - pretty sad, I know,
For where to install the A-R27173 Filter Element; Stroke Control Valve.
In the paper I got from John Deere there was an arrow pointing to behind the left front screen, by the air filter.
Your screen goes in the hydraulic pump endcap. On the bottom of the pump you will see two large plugs. The one without the adjusting screw in the middle is the one with the screen. remove plug #21 and spring #18, some shims#19 and guide #15 should come out. Then packings 15 usually stay in the housing and will hold the screen in the housing. Use a pick to pull out the lower seal and screen should come out. The other parts above the screen should stay in place.
