  • Retract everything with it hitched. Fill to proper level then cycle everything a few times and top off if needed.
  • Got the new one made 56.00 but a much better quality
    Now to see if it gets air in the system
  • Have you tried tightening the fitting or is it actually a hole in the hose? Very normal to need to snug up the fittings.
  • Maybe. Replace the hose, then extend the leveler and watch it. If its slow to react, crawl under and crack the fitting closest to the ram and let the air out. Generally you wont have to do anything except replace the hose.

    Take it off, take it to a reputable hydraulic hose shop. They will make you one up pretty reasonable. If you cant find a hose shop, find some place that does hydraulic work.


    Gotcha found one close by, assume I will have to purge air somehow ?? Or do I call them and have them walk me thru it
