JD 110 TLB

Update:

So I have isolated the cylinders and the bucket holds position( cylinders OK). After 4+ hours the skid plate is off . Ended up welding nuts to the counter sunk bolt head to remove. As per JD service recommendations, I switched the check valves in the 3rd scv valve for the loader and bucket roll circuits. Bucket still rolled down. Does this mean the SCV is bad? I'm on an island so logistics of getting the unit to the dealer are expensive and time consuming. May end up living with the issue for now as a new SCV is $1600 +or-.

Thoughts?

Thanks

In your case you could install a rebuild kit in the valve body or remove the valve body and send it in to be serviced. No need to ship the entire machine.

Update !

Turned out to be a bad cylinder. Somehow one of the bucket curl cylinders has internal damage. Hard to understand how it happened and because I just bought the tractor a month ago I will never know. The plunger on the rod looks like someone put a large pipe wrench on it. 1/16th inch gouges that destroyed the tube as well. Got a new cylinder from JD and all is good. Glad it wasn't the SCV

Thanks for the advice
