Hi Everyone,

I have a Jinma 284 tractor. I have the transmission top cover and Hydraulic top cover (under the seat) off and drained in order to rebuild the piston seals on the 3-point. The kit includes seals for the lift arms. Now my current arms are not leaking or drifting out of the correct position so I am inclined to not go to the trouble of replacing the seals.

However, taking this all apart and replacing the fluids is a real pain and so I don't want to skip doing the 3-point arm seals only to find out later that I should have becuase of the BLahh ... Blahhh ....Blahh problem.

So my question to those more experienced than I is: Is there any reason to mess with the seals on the 3-point arms if they are not leaking?

Thanks for any insight you guys and gals can provide.

Leo
