[QUOTE="SkidRoe, post: 32711, member: 3290"] Okay, so finally after long last, ITS DONE!!!! Work and life have been nuts. Went at it last weekend only to find I had a another leak, this time in the right hydro drive hose off the top of the pump. Thankfully not to hard to get at, just not a lot of wrench room down by the drive motor. I have a buddy with a hydrulics shop, so this hose was a piece of cake. He had some 4000 psi hose with a built in abrasion cover, but I put abrasion sleeving over this hose and the other hose as cheap insurance. Throttle linkage turned out to be super easy and works just like it was factory. All of the original air deflectors & heat sheilds fit with no modifications too.
