TN65 with hydraulic leak

Hi all,
I'm looking at purchasing a used TN65 but I'm told there is a hydraulic leak near the remote hydraulics. I haven't been able to take a close look, but I'm hoping to be able to fix it after purchasing. However, my thought is that, worse case scenario, I ought to be able to lock out the rear hydraulics and at very least have a perfectly good tractor with a working FEL. I know it's hard to give any advice without specifics, but can anyone give me a thought on whether my assumption is correct? IE, am I able to lock out the rear hydraulics and still use the FEL? Once I have the tractor in-shop, I can examine it more closely and figure this out, but I'm just trying to decide if I should take the risk on buying it as-is.

Thanks so much for any insight!
 
Well that's true. I imagine if it were literally just a hose, they'd have been able to diagnose it. But you're right, it might be something really simple.
However, assuming the problem is indeed at or near the remotes, do you know if I'd be able to lock that system out, and still have an operable tractor with working bucket?

Thanks!
