Main Pump
Main Pump
My main hydraulic pump is starting to leak. It leaks about a drip every 12 to 15 seconds(not under load at idle). I assume the pumps can be rebuilt but looking at the parts breakdown it doesn't appear there is a bushing in the front plate for the input shaft which is where it's leaking. Do I have to purchase a new front plate or do you have to replace the whole pump? I know most of the time just putting seals in will not stop the leak for long as there typically something wore out that makes the seal go bad.

Re: Main Pump
77Ford, JD Parts book shows that as a shaft seal for main hydraulic pump.. depends which pump you have and which machine but it is replaceable.. I would say it is worth a try for the cost of a seal.. if that doesn't work you can always buy a pump after..

Re: Main Pump
Just a quick follow up for closure. I removed the main pump and there was zero play in my input shaft. I think the seal had simply dry rotted out. I was able to source a seal. I called every bearing/seal place within an hour of me no one had it and it was going to be between 18 and 30 dollars. I found one at John Deere, in stock for 15 bucks.....
It's all back together and while I've not worked the machine I let it run for over 15 minutes and no sign of a leak yet.
I'd say the hardest part of the project is lifting the 5 gallon bucks of oil up to refill the reservoir, wan't much of a project at all.
