    2006 Simplicity Legacy XL lost power steering and loader functions/lift

    So the tractor with about 1000 hrs on it started being sluggish when cold lifting the bucket, so much to the point that i would sound like the pump is straining and like you're pumping gear oil through it versus atf/hydro fluid. It did this for a short period of time but have not put many...
