Looks like two filters both underneath the floor boards. One in the center and one to the left. https://www.messicks.com/catalogs/new-holland/tc33d-3-cyl-compact-tractor-deluxe-09-99-12-0/07-hydraulic-systems/05f02-05f02-hydraulic-piping-w-hst

When you say you can't make it up the hill, do you mean the engine is bogging down? Or do does the engine stay at PTO speed (2600 RPM) but your ground speed slows down? I looked at your old posts and you've had issues with the transmission and at one point mentioned not having a hydraulic oil...

Are you getting hoses made to attach to that fitting? If so I'd remove that elbow and see what the valve body connection is, hopefully SAE/O-Ring Boss. That way you can use a standard ORB<>JIC elbow and use hoses with JIC end. The valve body could also be BSPP. Less common in the US, but...

Did you have the head checked too?

Is this the same loader you posted about for your Iseki? If so it looks like you could adapt the uprights from that. My brother has an L3800 with Kubota loader, not sure if the frames are the same size but will be visiting his place for Christmas.

When it's acting up, if you run the engine at idle and hold down the forward pedal while in gear, do you hear any noises coming from the transmission? When I first bought my 4400, the transmission would "chatter" due to low charge pressure. I could hear what turned out to be trans pump...

I'd lean toward electrical. Can you tell if the engine loads down at all when it won't move and you're pushing the pedal all the way down? I'd try easy stuff first like check/re-mate any connectors down low associated with the hydro...maybe got a stick jammed in the wiring while brush hogging...

Another google hit. 1-4 series loader JDQA spec

If you were 3 quarts low in the front axle and kept running it my bet is you have some bad bearings and/or damaged gears in the front axle. Jack it up and spin things back and forth by hand, a mechanics stethoscope helps to isolate where noises are coming from.

Looking good!

That is a strange size shaft. I've not seen it done before, but I'm wondering if there is any technical reason you couldn't mount an electric clutch on the jack shaft instead of the engine? That way you can size the jack shaft diameter to whatever clutch you come up with...in this case you'd...

My uncle had a dirt floor in his garage. I remember when be bought a bigger dump truck it wouldn't fit through the garage door...so he dug a foot of dirt from the floor to make it fit. Worked ok until it rained. If it were me I'd figure out a way to concrete at least a portion so you can roll a...

I would probably go with an electric clutch, brand new for $100 or less depending what brand/style you go with.

I'm all for a project but have you priced an auger in your area? I picked up a gently used Danuser 3 pt mount PHD with 24" auger for $500 a few years ago. I see them pop up for sale periodically. I can't imagine you could build something for much less than that with similar usability. If I were...
