I've got an older stan hoist loader on mY '45 M. It has always been higher (as you are looking at the front of the loader) on the left side and then slants down to the right. I bought a kind of home made snow/dirt blade this summer at an auction for a mear 15 dollars and made it fit the front of the tractor. The problem is that I can't get it leveled out. So I scrape the ground on one side and on the other I leave a lot of snow. Not fun. It's proabably off 2-3 inches total. I think I have one or all of the following 3 problems.
1. the loader frame could be tweaked but it doesn't look like it is.
2. The loader (both one way cylinders) are hooked up to the lift all system from the left foremost port. The hose runs from that port to a t on the right cylinder and then another hose runs from the t to the left cylinder. Would it be better for one cylinder to come from the foremost left port and the other cylinder the right port?
3. I think this is the most likely... I noticed tonight when lifting the loader frame it appears that only the right cylinder (while running the tractor) is doing all the lifting. The whole frame seems to tweak on that side when lifting. Is there a decent way to test the cylinders? I think the left one either doesn't work or isn't working well.

The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
