I agree with you completely. Not a fan of part swapping parts until something fixes it. So what happened that lead to my current situation you ask? Well I was moving some relatively loose soil for a neighbor in their woods. I got hung on a root while lifting the bucket. I blew a hose on one of the work ports of the loader. I had already replaced three of the four previously as they were looking rough. At this point I'm getting another hose thinking that replace the hose, add a little fluid if necessary and get back to work. After replacing the hose if I tried to lift the bucket it would barely move and the hydraulics were screeching like when you max them out. I would let go of the valve and try it again. Same thing. The bucket curl control worked fine. It was only on the bucket lift. I managed to get the bucket lifted enough to get the tractor home. I swapped the bucket lift with the bucket curl ports on the valve to see what would happen. The bucket lift worked fine but the bucket curl would hardly move and screech. The backhoe worked fine as well. At this point I knew the cylinders were okay and the problem was in the valve. I took it to the hydraulic repair shop and they worked with it and told me that fluid was blowing by the spool on the lift control and replacing the valve was their recommendation.

Up till then, this tractor had been running a corn grinder and pulling a trailer. It had new unfilled rear tires and no wheel weights. The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
