Ford 1710 Hydraulic leak

[wkualum]

Guys - I bought this tractor in December and love it. I offered to use my backhoe to help out my 80 year old neighbor and dig a drainage ditch for him. Well - of course something goes wrong mid project. Darn Murphy's law!

I need some help...where can I go from here? Below is a video hopefully detailing my problem. Is there a new seal kit? Also - what is the remedy to keep this from blowing seals? Much appreciate your help!

These are o rings you need, the others i bought at tractors supply in an assorted pack.

Looking that number up on the Ford NH parts site shows it's used on the 1710 OFFSET, which was a specialty tractor, you need to check real good with the parts and service department about if it will work on a regular 1710, mighty expensive kit that might not be returnable!

There were lots of updates back when they were new due to leaks there

This is the orings i used on mine, worked perfect. I do not have an offset.

Thanks guys! I need to finish this project for my neighbor. I will order the parts tomorrow. No lo, you don't happen to have the tsc assortment wku number do you?

Yes I do here it is. The important ones are the first orings I sent. The tractor supply ones go on the banjo bolt at the bottom of the valve. The orings that were leaking on mine and im sure yours also. Is the tube that joins the valve and the pump (#23 on exploded view). When you take orings out look carefully that there are no pieces that fell off. Mine had a piece that fell off and I got it out with long needle nose. Im sure they are not good for the pump.
