550 hydraulic issues

I need help solving a hydro problem on my 550. it works good but whines when cold. when warm it must be at full throttle to lift with the external remote or 3-pt. when we hook up a 60 gallon spray, the 3-pt wont lift it when full. however, if you raise it then fill with water, it drifts only a couple inches then jumps back up. I have adjusted the linkage on the left of the trans cover and it seems to help but tractor pulls down some if the lift is all the way up. do I need a pump or is there a rebuild kit. the cheapest new pump I can find is 896 bucks.
 
First of all you need to adjust that linkage so you have from travel in the lift links or you will need a pump. Next you need to check the pressure. Also if there is a problem with the relief valve in the remote valve it affects the 3 point as well. Your turn to answer some questions. How about a phone number
