FEL joystick Help needed

[astro1949]

i do not know anything about FEL's.
pictures are of a BESKO Joystick on a TYM 353HST.
the Ball will not stay in upper triangular part --

can i just replace joy stick "BOX" via two cables ? Is this pretty standard --any JS will work ?

what specs do i need to know when replacing ? nearest TYM dealer is over 100 miles away --

any help will be great !!

thx
bob

You can look at these replacement joysticks. I do not know if it will mount in the TYM holes or if your cables will attach to the base (plug and play). I would think most cables would have some standard threads. You could call the company and ask.

If you are needing the plate the 3 balls go in and your joystick handle too last time i checked it was in the $20 area. That is one of the cheapest items to fix on this control lever. If that's what you need I would fix it rather than changing the assembly.

thanks -- i have coming next week......i wasnt sure if the plate OR the ball was worn -- plate looks to be soft metal and ball is brass -- i ordered a SS kit ---that should last forever .

thx again !!

I have a tym 50 hp. Tractor , one of the 90° fittings on the joystick control valve has broken, where can I find the fitting.

Have you tried a hydraulic shop in your area?

if you live rural, there will be a tractor repair shop, or a general mechainics shop, that works on trucks, tractors, implements, and just about any other agricultural equipment. The “Local” where I live is a place called “Lemhi Tractor”. And, he will work on just about anything, if you have the time to wait, folks keep him very busy. If you need it faster you can haul it 2-hours over the mountains to Missoula (no sales taxes), or 2-1/2 hours down to Idaho Falls.

And, the local NAPA and CarQuest both stock fittings and bulk hose, and will make up custom hoses.

You’re going to need a good extractor to pull what is left of the old fitting out. (Don’t ask the fifteen year old girl at the counter for a nipple extractor. She will turn red, scream and run away. Then her seventeen year old sister will come ask what you want, before she too blushes and runs away. Mom knew what I wanted, and went to the reserve stock downstairs to get me one. But made the girls come see what it looked like and showed them how it worked before she sold it too me.)

If it isn’t too much of a pain pull the whole valve out, so you can blow it out with brake cleaner and make sure there are no bits of metal to get into the rest of the hydraulics.
