I have a Kubota L3130D HST with an LA513 FEL and I need to make two repairs.
1. The left hydraulic cylinder that curls the bucket is leaking (just dripping) and needs to be rebuilt.
2. The FEL hand control valve that raises and lowers the FEL is sticking.
I'm hoping to make the repair myself, so I'm wondering.
1. Where is the best place to order parts?
2. Is there information available on how to make these repairs? I'm mechanically inclined and don't mind fixing things.
I'm also not opposed to bringing it to my dealer, if that is really the best advice. I brought them a cylinder in the past and watched them repair it. It was a bit entertaining - I thought they would have some special tool to install the new seals (o-rings?), but it was pretty much a brute force operation.
Thanks in advance for any help.
