47 2n hydraulics rebuild progress

[lennyzx11]

Got the 2n back together and the 3 point does work. I had used universal fluid but looked for the spec rating mentioned that I needed. The lift worked well at first but dropped pretty quick when the clutch was shoved in after warming up. I'm going to pull the cover off and relook for any leaks but I'm wondering if I should be running the straight 90 weight instead. I did replace the piston also with the NAA one and seal. It started out working real well but seemed to lose lift as it warmed up. It was 93 working it here today.

This old heavy six foot back blade loaded with gravel over the top would bring it to a stop spinning!

open the inspection cover and raise a load and look in.. see where you have oil leaking from. places like cyl mouth, stand pipe, gaskets on the pump or top and bottom covers at the stand pipe are the main leak sources. Cyl only holds about 12oz oil.. so when you stomp the clutch, if you have a pencil sized stream leak.. it don't take long to drop a loaded 3pt.

Thanks! I'll do exactly that.
