Thanks guys, I really appreciate you both taking time to help. I will investigate further and let you know if I find the problem. I’m sure it’s something simple, I’m just not familiar with how it works yet.
I could not get it to work, do you know if the detent is activated in the spool body or externally? I’m not sure what I’m missing as I’ve always just held it to run the bush hog but I am getting a backhoe attachment and that won’t work.😁 I have a technical manual but not a users manual, it does...
I just had to replace the charge pressure sensor on mine as it did the same thing but it had an error code show up that was appropriate to the problem.
I have a John Deere 7775 which is the same as a ls170/160 and wonder how you have the auxiliary hydraulics run continuously? I’ve been using a bush hog and just holding the handle down to run it and it’s killing my hand. There has to be a way to lock this on but I haven’t found it. I do not...
I have a bush hog with hydraulic motor that I use with the 7775, I am also purchasing a 900super John Deere backhoe attachment for same machine. The question I have is how do I get the auxiliary hydraulics to stay on continuously? I’ve been holding it bush hogging and it’s killing my hand...
I went with the motor you recommended and will let you guys know how it works out. It will be a few weeks before it arrives and I get it assembled. Will take photos and if there's a way I'll post of the project for others to hopefully learn. Thanks for help
I spoke with a couple of guys at surplus center today and told them what my machine puts out, 17gpm @ 2600+- 200 psi, the circuit relief is 2750+- 200 psi. I got two different recommendations on hydraulic motor size, one said an 8 cubic inch and one said 7.6. Everything I've found points to me...
Condition is a big factor in price. When I was pricing tracks I saw used as you mentioned that would fit an ls160-170 in the neighborhood of 1000usd but that was atleast 6 years ago. Not sure if they've went up or down on the used market.

If someone has tried to respond and couldn't, here is what I have to do to be able to post. I hit reply (then I can't type anything in the box) I hit review, then go back to edit mode and it lets me type...
I called last year and spoke with a fellow but didn't write down his name or what he told me. I told him what I planned on buying and he told me exactly what I needed and said just call back when I got the cutter. Mine is a 540 with a 40hp gearbox on it. I've got this thing figured out if they...
I finally got a used 6' King Kutter to use with my John Deere 7775 which is basically an LS160. I have a technical manual for it and it says it produces 17gpm with a min of 14gpm, 2600 relief psi. I called surplus center and they told me they get around 20 calls a week for this. They need to...
I purchased this thing used with a blown kubota Diesel engine with 850 hours on it. I installed a new kubota engine in that I got an extremely good deal on. I repacked one cylinder that leaked a little and now everything is dry with no leaks anywhere. I used it to load fire wood when I had my...
