[QUOTE="andyjax, post: 76310, member: 6589"] Hi folks- Haven't been here in a while, but sure appreciate all the help I've received in the past. Today, I went out on the farm with my '01 Bobcat 773 to clean up some trees and limbs from a recent storm. I ran into a pretty deep rut in tall grass and had a pretty big bounce but nothing I hadn't done before. Here's the bad part. I ran the machine for about an hour after that. All controls working normally. Got back to the barn, shut it down and immediately saw a trail of hydraulic fluid that followed me in to the barn. Looked underneath and saw a pretty good leak coming from either a new hole or I'm hoping a common drain. Anyway, got the machine up on blocks and then shut it down. The last of the fluid came foaming out. Here's my concern. I can fix the leak, whatever it is, but I'm really concerned that I did permanent damage to the pumps, etc. If anyone can shed some light on my concerns I'd really appreciate any advise.
