Over the winter I am going to pull the lift cover off my 71 Ford 3000. The lift doesn't go all the way up with a load but will with nothing on the 3pt. I really have no idea what may be causing this but felt rebuilding the lift was a good place to start. This will be my first experience with rebuilding the lift but do have both the IT and Ford service manuals.
I know I will need a lift cover rebuild kit but not sure what they include and wondering what other parts I should go ahead and order just in case..
I don't mind spending a few bucks, even if I order a part I may not need. Just don't want to be stuck with the tractor apart and discover I have to wait on a $5.00 part.
Of course I understand we are shooting in the dark and the possibility of having every possible situation covered is pretty remote but would like to be as prepared as possible.
Any suggestions on what I might need in addition to the lift kit?
