JDcrawlers Messageboard

well is a learning experience and not only for me, am sure others on this board appreciate the knowledge that the rest of y'all contribute...mostly it really comes down to the old computer m.o.....kiss...."keep it simple stupid"!!, which obviously i missed!

ok guys..those are the answers that i had anticipated....will edit further i have answer from Lavoy to check out. Pump is ready!!! and second pump needed new gaskets/seals as old hardened. Gonna eliminate that filter in that line will see what it would take to plumb to the return line...it is toward...

ok lets see if Lavoy may have a good suction line? and what cost? what info is needed, overall length? and do away with filter? and other than that i assume the filter should actually be on the pressure line with filter housing mounted stationary and pressure hoses to and from filter. you both menti...

will get a couple photos and get em posted...will add then here thru edit !! the filter was already added to the suction line...so that begs the question...where did my oil go from the pump? cause the filter was empty and i had filled the pump. see handmade ring by p.o. http://jdcrawlers.lcent.com:8...

called "stuff happens"??? bad enough when happens to my dozer or other equip.

ok so while waiting for rebuilt pump....my "new" pump was replaced with claims to be a working pump off another dozer to replace my new pump...now that aint working so considering what issues may else be causing problems.. i decided to dig a bit and have taken off the hose running from top of tank t...

my jd440ic final drives simply showed a thin coating of paint

edit
mine are dry so JimB sounds right, but sure others will advise further

well hope someone needs the blamed thing ...i don't
