Mahindra Emax 25 Loader valve

papadaddyo · Jan 14, 2021

I really need some help on this. I have read several posts but still need guidance. My loader valve arm broke right at the base. It is a Besko valve and you can't fix them. The dealer said a replacement valve is over $700. I would like to know if someone has replaced this valve and if so where did you get it. I will need the power beyond valve as well. I have looked at the valve for sale by Summit Hydraulics but don't want to spend more money and it not work.

Thanks for any help

I assume by "arm", you are referring to the control lever? I am not surprised that you cant buy a replacement part but I'm curious why it cant be disassembled and repaired? Im not familiar with your Besko valve but I did look at the parts diagram showing the valve. I had a similar issue with a New Holland Zexel made valve and was able to simply Mig weld it back together( it's still working 12 years later). Not saying your fix is that easy but with the info I have, it "sounds" like it may be repairable.

EDIT: Looking at the parts diagram again, I noticed they actually do list a few replacement parts. "Joystick lever assy" Part # 801Z1-8C003 Cost $70.88 They also list "Joystick lever connector" Part # 801Z1-8C002 Cost $180.08

Not saying that your dealer was wrong but he's definitely right about one thing, they want $789.60 for that valve! ( actually cheaper than I would have guessed)
