The system lifts great, but it leaks down within thirty minutes. Is this the seals? If so how complicated is it to replace/rebuild? Are there any videos and or manuals that are helpful in performing this? Thanks for any help.

I'd have to Agree, my '47 2N takes about 3 to 5 minutes to drop. It hasn't been a problem so far, but it is annoying. No plans to rebuild it.

As far as stopping to re-lift, I had to travel for about 30 minutes on the road a couple of weeks back with a bush hog on the back, and I had to pull off a couple of times to raise the 'Hog again to keep it from scraping. Being "new" to tractors, I figured I could have done three things; 1. Travelled with the cutter rotating - (not good), or 2. Unhook the PTO shaft and wire it up to an arm and travel with the PTO moving but nothing else - (better). or 3. just do what I did and stop every so often. There is a fourth method, and that was to make a set of limiter chains with instrucitons provided here on this site. Search for Limiter Chains and you'll find the info on how to make. Limiter chains would keep the hog in a static up position for the duration. I'm saving my pennies for a Zane Thang to put on the up/down adjustment arm that'll take care of ALL my problems!

Best Regards, John

Wow 30 minutes you are going good. Mine grounds
out in about 5 minutes. I think I want to rework mine also.

30 min is proble better than average. You can rebuild the ram with an NAA piston but why? You do ALWAYS ground your implements when you are away from the tractor don't you? I would hate for you to post a topic of "Implement dropped on dog" or worse "Implement dropped on child".

I NEVER even turn my tractor off until the implement is grounded just in case I have to raise it fast.

Be safe.

You are right about that Charlie. Thanks for the input. It might be less than 30 minutes. Maybe 15. I moved it to another location to mow and I had to stop to raise the mower along the way. Just thought I shouldn't have to do that. Where in Tx are you located and should I have to stop to raise it?
