BX24 blowing hydraulic filters

[JPGR]

So we changed pressure relief value and started with no shims....got it to 1500 psi and it blew the filter. It absolutely destroyed the inside of last filter. We will check screen and change coupler that was unplugged from backhoe and connected back into system. Not sure what you mean by charge pump loop? We will also check priority flow control. We did this same hookup last summer with no issues. We will change coupler today. Five Kubota filters later........

I am having the same problem with my BX 2230. If you figure it out please let me know. I am trying to avoid taking it in $$$$. Been working on it since June. Had it goin for 2 weeks until it blew the forth filter.

Suki,

The OP seems to have dropped this issue. I still have the question I asked the OP up stream:

"Could you please enlighten me as to exactly what is going on with the filters. You start out saying they are blown and then later talk about them being blown up internally. How do they blow up. Do they start leaking, where? From the gasket, the crimped seam, or a split in the side? How can you tell they are blown up internally? All I can see on a filter are the holes the fluid goes through, are you splitting them open? Some pictures would be nice.

To be clear, I do believe there is something going on, and I am not intending to belittle or troll you. I am just hung up and can't get past the failure mode. I have a BX 24, so I am learning a lot from this thread.
