Well, the 460 LP that I wrote about a couple of weeks ago is up, running, and the Fast Hitch works like a charm! But it was a hard road getting there. The hydraulic pump was not making contact with the drive gear, because the OEM "retainer" that holds the pump driven gear in place, had been replaced with an ordinary washer that had bent until it no longer was preventing the driven gear from walking on the spline until it no longer was driving the pump. Ordered new one from dealer, installed it, put it all back together with new o-rings, and then crank it up: STILL no action at my Fast Hitch.
