Hi everyone. I am new to this forum so this question might have been answered already. I have a 1974 Ford 4000 (might be a '73) three cylinder diesel tractor. 2wd no front loader. The rear lift is real strong and will even lift up super heavy implements like a 4 bottom plow. The only thing that concerns me is that even on light implements the lift motion seems slow and doesn't move until I have moved the lever a good ways. Not sure if this is normal or not. I would figure the lift would be pretty quick and snappy. The lift will raise and I will have to push back down on the lever to find the stopping point. Also even on the light implements once I turn the tractor off it will slowly leak down within a few minutes and when I start the tractor back up it pulls the implement right back to the upper position. Any thoughts on what I should check. I changed the fluids and this did not help any. Thanks a lot!! [/b]
