I want to thank everyone who replied! I finally got it working>I changed the quick connect coulpling and nothing changed the other day. I went out today and the outriggers had tightened up and the boom had moved slightly> while it was sitting overnight. I talked with 2 other tractor mechanics...

I checked the lever behind the 3 pt hitch lever. Some kids took it on a joy ride awhile back and I couldn't be sure they didn't move it. I tried it in both directions> no change. It has a notch on the front side,I am pretty sure it's always been at that point.

I'll go check, but in the past I don't remember switching anything, but I could be a dumb ass and that lever might have got moved>it's possible. Thanks for pointing that out!

I found a picture of the supply and return on the internet> I have triple checked it and the hoses are hooked up right. Now I am thinking it's one of the quick connects. 3 of them operate easy and one is hard(female one)does that sound about par for the course? No bad comment! Anybody have the...

I have no bypass valve. Only thing that I can figure that could be wrong is> I changed the larger hoses that feed the backhoe>the IN and Out on the manifold. I marked the hoses when I took them to the place that makes the hoses for me. When I got them back they were not marked and the quick...

I got the loader working and it was one of the quick connects, thank you all for your help. I do need to put a kill switch on the tractor, the kids wouldn't be able to figure that out since it's not on video games. I started another thread about the #10 backhoe and I am trying to get it to work...

I have a 2155 John Deere with a loader and a #10 backhoe. It is a 1990 model. I had not used the backhoe in several years(5) and needed it one day. Hooked it up to the tractor and it immediately blew a couple of hoses. All the hoses looked bad as they are 31 years old. I changed those and it...

Holding position. I noticed right after the wreck it would curl a little then >not at all.

I have a 1990 2155 John Deere with a 175 loader and a #10 backhoe. Recently I left the key in it and some local kids took it for a joy ride. Apparently they hadn't driven a tractor before and ran it into a tree, bending the loader bucket. I straightened the bucket, but now it won't articulate...

I had a miller Dynasty 200 DX and needed some money awhile back and sold it. I got the same amount I paid for it because the prices had gone up so much. I am now in need of another tig machine. Are there any good ones out there for less money than another Miller? The Dynasty was great and I...

Can anyone enlighten me how to hook up the hydraulic lines going to a backhoe on a 2155. A guy that helps me removed 4 hoses on the back pump under the seat for me( I wished I had told him to take a couple of pictures of it, 2 were busted) I wanted to replace them all as they were 25 years old...
