I have a Farmtrac 360 with a front end loader, the other day my wife was using it and something went wrong or broke under the joystick, it is very sloppy and I have lost the curl/dump function, the loader will still move up and down. I assume it must be something under the joystick but I have never tore into one of these before so I don't know what I am in for. Any ideas?

It could be something as simple as a nut/bolt working loose from the end of a knuckle link under the rubber boot where the joystick attaches...
Also, one of the knuckles (bearing etc.) could be worn out
see if you can lift the boot and make an inspection...

I pulled the rubber boot off this afternoon and sure enough 2 metric allen head bolts had worked loose and that had caused the pin that goes into the valve that controls the curl/dump function to come out , I put it all back together and was back in action, having never tore into one I was afraid of what I might be in for, but you were right /pine it was something simple, thank's.
