Changing Hydraulic cylinders

[J_J]

All you need is to connect a hyd gage to a female QD and you are ready to go. Nest, install a tee and a male QD in the pump circuit. To read total/relief pressure, it has to be before any valve.

To test relief pressure, hook up the gage, and extend or retract the cylinders fully, and you will see the relief pressure. I would recommend installing the tee with male fitting at the input to the FEL valve, where you can see it.

You could add a hose to the test setup for checking the pressure at other points on the tractor.

JJ,
Anyone have a link to the parts needed. I didn't see the blocks on Surplus centers website only the guages. Also looking for the "cheap" Pioneer quick connects. Not flat face ones.
