My 230hr CK25 loader control joystick had gotten so loose and floppy that it was barely usable. When I took it apart to take a look there are three nylon balls on posts that the joystick pivots on and these balls were worn out. I use the float function a lot and the fixed post/ball was really worn out causing the joystick to pop off of this pivot point. Researching on TBN it looked as thought the parts to fix it were going to be quite expensive. When I went to order the kit from my dealer I was quite happy to find out they have a new updated kit thats about $30. The new kit includes new posts/ball that look to be machined out of stainless steel and includes the new pivot part that goes between the joystick arm and pivot balls. This kit looks to be a tremendous improvement over the old design that used the nylon/plastic balls. I highly recommend the upgrade to others who's loader joystick is getting loose/floppy or uses the float function a lot. I know some people have recommended against using the float function due wearing out the joystick but I think this upgrade will correct that issue. Just wanted to let everybody know for about $30 and a couple of hours you can fix the problem and have a new improved design.
