just an update for those interested, i had the swashplate welded and machined by a friend, so all i replaced was the rotating group. I got it from Loader Parts Source in the US for $800 AUD shipped, all orings and gaskets i sourced locally.All linkages and rod ends have been replaced and its all nice and tight again, even replaced bucket rams.Everything is almost back and ready to run, just getting new hoses made up from a friend, just need new seat.should be running in a couple of weeks.there is some very good information on this forum. keep up the god work guys and gals http://secondhandforklifts.com.au
