Farmall 300 Rear Hydraulic 3-Pt. Hitch Leaking

robinette81@gmail.com · May 11, 2016

I have a 1955 IH Farmall 300 Utility tractor with a 3-Pt. quick hitch. The hydraulic cylinder for the quick hitch leaks fluid. Can this cylinder be rebuilt (gaskets, O-rings, etc.) ? If so, can you give me
some guidance on the rebuild and where to get parts. Thanks.

Yes.

You can get parts at your local CaseIH dealer, or at a hydraulic shop. Either will also offer a service to perform the rebuild for you.

You call it a "3pt quick hitch" do you know if is an original "fast hitch" as IH called it? If so what barnyard says is what I would say. Should have a 5/8"? Rod on each corner; pull it off take those loose and pull ends off. Not sure if you have to pull the yoke off the ram to reseal it. That may be the hardest part. If you have an after market 3 pt. then it is also most likely rebuildable but IH may not have the parts. If the cylinder is scored inside the bore it may need to be honed. If that is the case maybe post back with a picture of the damage. PS welcome to the YT forums!
