Loader Joy Stick Question/Problem

[Temp97]

My LA 301 has very slow response when you pull the stick to the left (roll back). I have to pull it to the left enough that it hits the steering wheel? This didn't just happen overnight, I've been noticing over a period of time it's getting worse. The other movements are just fine???? Is this an internal problem (control valve) or external linkeage problem.... Any help.

Probably a linkage problem. I had to tighten mine the other day as it began to feel sloppy. Most single stick loaders use ball rod ends that attach to the spool clevis. Pull your boot up and take a peek.
