[QUOTE="billrbg, post: 77686, member: 10970"] Oh, I was bending the breaker-bar... a lot! I'm kind of surprised the 1/2" drive didn't twist off. I certainly am going to change the seals with the valve in place, one look at all those hard-lines that would have to be busted loose, probably at both ends, convinced me of that. I just couldn't get into the front (linkage) end, not even enough to get the clips and pins out. Notice I said "couldn't"? I can now, I got that big hose out. I went back to the other end, at the oil tank, and that one was fairly easy to loosen. Which is good, since the fitting there goes into that plastic tank and breaking that tank would be easy to do if I had to torque on that end as much as I was the other. After that end was loose, I just unscrewed the hose complete with the other fitting from the Block in front. I started to take off a boot on the front of one spool, but couldn't get the retainer to come out. Does that use just one 1/4-20 screw to hold it, or is there another 180 deg away that I can't see or feel right now? [/QUOTE]
