Pray tell, why did you buy a new loader?

Is the torque tube (the connecting piece about three feet behind the bucket that holds the left and right side of the loader together) round and hollow or is it a closed box? Almost certainly you have the round tube version as the original version has not been manufactured for about five years now.

Thanks - looks like I'm good. On the actual sticker on the loader it says it's a KL120P.

It's round and hollow but also has a cover.

Mine flexed like a snake and the pistons were all worn out needing packing. The prior owner didn't own a grease gun it appears. The new one was a take off of another machine that the owner didn't want. I got it at a good deal.
Still no pics. Didn't make it to the garage yet for but will today after work.

That is remarkable. Glad you found a replacement at a good price. I would imagine the older worn loader is still worth $$$$ so don't scrap it.

Replacing the cylinders would be an interesting project with a steep learning curve. I watched an expert do a demo once which was interesting and demystified the process. The parts are cheap and having seen it done, it appears not to require finesse so much as a feel for when and how to apply brute force. A big vice is the only must have piece of equipment. The first one would take a while but the other three would be much easier. I'm sure people on TBN have done it themselves and could provide advice.

I've rebuilt a few when working at my dad's garage when I was younger. We fixed all types of trucks and tractors.
Pics as promised.
Old style (2006-2008) This has a rear access panel bolted on.

I see grease coming out of those joints. Was that only after you got the tractor? Are the bushings also in need of replacement? That would seem to be a much bigger job than just repacking the cylinders.
