somebody buggered up at the manufacturer. That rusted out part was like that when you bought it. The rest just followed
I did not say it could not be done, rather it SHOULD not be done. Then again, I am only a structural engineer who believes in doing it right and not covering up bad work with band aids. Not saying there is not a place for practical experience just that it needs to be tempered with science and engineering.Plates over welded up cracks and tears, weld more bracing. The one that says it can't be done needs to stay out of the way of the one that's doing it
No one said 'can't', only that it shouldn't be trusted.Plates over welded up cracks and tears, weld more bracing. The one that says it can't be done needs to stay out of the way of the one that's doing it
The loader relief valve is built into the loader valve. When the spools are centered, it is what protects the loader lines and cylinders from overpressure. It is set to a higher relief pressure than the main hydraulic system (2610psi vs 2346psi), that way it never comes into play unless the load is significantly increased on the cylinders after the spools have been returned to neutral position.Interesting. Do you happen to have a diagram how this works? I always thought when the spool is centered it closes all other ports off so no way for the relief to work.
I hate to tell you that is not correct. Once the spool is centered it is the same as if the hoses were capped. No way for the relief to do anything for the loader hoses and cylinders. In an open center valve that utilizes the power beyond feature then any valve after the loader valve would be protected by the loader relief. Often times the loader valve is first valve in series and would be plumbed straight from the pump. The tractor relief is after the loader and can be set lower to release before the loader valve.The loader relief valve is built into the loader valve.

I'm going based on my own loader specs here (FLx2815), so other systems may vary. I can copy and attach the hydraulic circuit diagram if you like, but you could probably find a better one by just Googling it.
See if you can find an attorney that will do it 'Pro-Bono'.Otherwise, you need to find an attorney who will charge you less than the repair work to bring the case!
is that anothe crack starting above the left side of the sticker?
