[QUOTE="skidsteerdan, post: 132603, member: 18454"] Hi Marv, Thanks for posting this, this is very helpful. I have a 443 diesel as well, I've made some posts here regarding my experience changing the bearings/chain case items. Please let me know if you ever need help with this! I'm afraid of replacing the gear pump some day, so your post is very helpful. Can I ask a few questions? 1. Where did you get the replacement pump? is it the cessna one that's from [URL]https://loaderpartssource.com/[/URL] ? 2. Is it mandatory to remove the engine? Can I just cut a hole in the side? I have no problem cutting holes in this sucker, because I would have to do all of the work outside and have no additional outside machinery (i.e. I'm a 200lb guy and would have to remove the engine myself with no additional hydraulic machines outside of floor jacks). What advice do you have for this situation? Thanks Dan P.s. I have had to replace some hoses in the left side (looking at it from the front) loader arm. They can be ridiculously hard to replace, there's no wrench in the world that can fit in there, so I cut a small (4"x4") hole in the side to wrench them out. They were really easy to replace then. I have also had to replace the left side hydraulic motor, I tried to rebuild but it just didn't work. A new motor was like $1000 I think. What's awful about my situation is that the place it breaks down is the place it gets repaired, so I had to do that replacement on a significant hill in the dirt in the winter. I love my machine, I use it for DIY landscaping work at my own property and it's very good for it's size. It's slow and can't lift much but it's better than a wheel barrow! [/QUOTE]
