a few days ago the fel bucket would not curl it felt like it was stuck. Being the quick thinking idiot I decided to try to see if it would move by lowering the bucket to the ground and curling the bucket as I backed up. Thats when the fluid came out of the valve. after this I got off the tractor to check the valve and noticed one of the hoses for the fel had come loose at the quick disconect, I guess this is what the original problem was. Anyhow the spool valve has a small crack on the side and leaks fluid only when curling up. of course I cant buy just the spool houseing I have to by as a complete kit which is pretty pricey. Could this crack be welded? would jb weld work?
