    Default 70a loader question

    I have a 1995 JD855 with a 70a loader.

    When I lower the loader I can hear a hiss/noise on one side?
    The other side is quiet.
    The noise is similar to water flowing past a valve as you close the valve?

    Any ideas what might cause this noise?
    Is it a seal?
    Is there air in the line?
    No real leaks on this baby.
    I searched but didn't find anything.

    Remember, I'm an Idiot!
    Thanks,

    It's a normal sound. There is a restrictor on the "lower" side so the loader falls at a controlled rate, you are hearing the fluid being forced through that restrictor.
