Avery: Scotty is quite correct, worst case is that $100. rebuild. If you don't have any external leaks, I wouldn't get awfully excited though. These systems are actually quite light weight when it comes to hydraulics. I have check chains made up for my tractors, about 2' of 5/16 chain with slip link hook. When I'm moving some distance with a mounted implement, I put the chains around rear rockshaft and to and around hitch cross bar. Takes the weight off hydraulic systen while travelling. My Farmall 130 has actually been doing as your tractor is for the past 5 years. I have no external leaks. You hardly notice it when in field working, and on route I use the check chains. I also use those chains on 140 with system working perfect. I started doing this when I built a 60 gallon boom sprayer. I had some concerns that hitch might not take the stress of 750 lbs of sprayer and liquid. I was using restricted chemicals at time and could not chance a spill. The chains worked so well I use them always now.
