Woods 1020 Loader Joystick Troubles....Help needed

[Haymaker101]

Hey everyone,
I just recently purchased a 2000 New Holland TN65. It came with a Woods 1020 Loader. The loader joystick is extremely sloppy, almost to the point as where I cannot safely use it. On my Mahindra with a wood loader, there have been nuts that we are able to tighten and such. Anyways, this joystick looks like its had a hard life and either bushings or shims are missing. Even the loader joystick, body itself is worn hard. So, there is only 2 cable which come into the joystick (up/down, open/close). Does anyone know of a direct replacement joystick assembly that I can purchase for this loader? If so, please post a link and point me in the right direction. Thanks everyone for the help in advance.

Hello Haymaker, This is Paul, originally from East Longmeadow. I now live in Kentucky. I have the same NH tractor that you discussed in this thread about a decade ago. I bought it about 3 years ago and the joystick has always been sloppy for me as well. It is not not tilting the bucket back. Not sure if I have a broken cable or not, but I am interested in replacing the entire assembly because I can see where it is broken in the hinge joint that is causing most of the sloppyness. Did you manage to get yours repaired? any ideas on how to source parts?Thanks
