[QUOTE="M.Magis, post: 1316273, member: 14175"] This is old, but thought I’d give an update since everything is up and running now. It’s unlikely anyone else has to problems I had, but just in case. Took it to a Deere dealer since they have a few mechanics very familiar with these systems, and we had gotten to the point we were just guessing. First problem was the hydraulic clutch, which was our guess. It supplies fluid to the main pump, which explains why it was acting like it was. The other problem was much more severe. At some point in the past someone had tried to rebuild the Hi-Lo, and didn’t know how. Things were in the wrong order, and they left out some thrust washers. Everything in there was basically shot, and the entire system was full of metal dust. They were surprised it even moved as bad as it was. You can probably guess what Deere hydraulic parts cost, and I can’t say it was even worth fixing it. But it was that or leave it in the field to rust, so I bit the bullet. [/QUOTE]
