Help....Case IH 3414 loader control went Pfffft

Joe Tractor · Jan 11, 2014

Afternoon all,

I have a gas 3414 loader that the loader controls need rebuilt due to a broken bolt (if looking at the right side frame, it's one of the bolts accessible through the frame for removal. Anyone have experiance pulling the controls? Only way I see is to remove the tanks and take it out the top. Since this thing is the heart of the hydraulic system with a gazillion hose connections, one would think it would be easy to get to for repairs??

I'm in Indiana, and the nearest IH industrial shop is 2 hours away, and they even are doubtfull they can repair it...

Any help would be great...weather sucks, and I don't need a 5klb paperweight in the yard.

Hello,

Can you post any pictures? It's hard to tell without being there.

That valve looks like a real pain to get to. I can't help you there.

Have you looked into any possibility of salvage parts if yours is not repairable?

Another option is just replacing the valve with a different one from some where like surplus center. TBN'er JJ would be the one to ask about that.
